You have articles sitting on your website. Hours of work, buried in your archives. Turning them into audio seems simple enough. Just hit record and read, right?

That approach sounds awful. I tried it.

Writing for the eye and writing for the ear require completely different structures. Sentences that look elegant on the page come out robotic when spoken. Or you stumble. Or you sound like you're reading (because you... are).

In this episode, I walk through the translation process that turns a written post into something you can actually perform. It takes about fifteen minutes per article and makes all the difference.
