I give the shivers. Make the belly flip flop in
the middle of the chapter. Use my voice to create those heightened moments so carefully
crafted in thrillers or suspense novels they forget they have been sitting in the
driveway for the last ten minutes.
Then…
My voice summons those butterflies in the belly while
experiencing the signature rom-com meet-cute, the heated banter, and that first
touch just as the listener does their best to keep a poker face.
With more than a decade of theatre experience, I craft
just the right amount of tension, nuance and intimacy that draws in the
listener.
Trained in theatre, music, vocal performance and dance, I know how to
build a moment or deliver punchline, all while keeping the storytelling
grounded and focused for the reader to fully engage.
For stories of a sexier, sultrier bent, with open door scenes
and content of an explicit nature, my pseudonym of Kayce West sends spine tingles
of a whole different sort.
I never want to stop playing pretend. I love the challenges of being a chameleon for character work; coming up with unique voices, making nuanced choices that bring stories of all genres to life.
