Meet the Voice in the Dark
I have been keeping a little secret.
Not particularly well, mind you. A few of you have already heard a sample, and judging by some of the messages I received afterward, I may need to start putting warning labels on audio files.
But now I can finally introduce her properly.
Meet Ellyn—the new voice of Riley Blackstone.
I’ve wanted to bring my stories to audio for quite a while, but I had one very large problem: I didn’t just want someone who could read them.
My stories can be romantic. They can be tender and funny. They can be playful, strange, emotional, and occasionally downright filthy. The person behind the microphone needed to understand all of that. She needed to be able to tell a story when the characters were falling in love and still sound completely comfortable when they were falling into bed.
And then I heard Ellyn.
Oh, my.
She has this wonderfully intimate British voice—soft and warm when it needs to be, playful when the words call for it, and capable of becoming positively sinful without ever sounding forced. More importantly, she doesn’t simply read the words on the page. She performs them.
A pause matters. A breath matters. A moan matters.A little tremble in a word matters. She understands that.
There is something wonderfully intimate about hearing a story spoken aloud. Words that feel one way on a page become something entirely different when they’re whispered into a microphone by someone who knows exactly what to do with them.
And Ellyn knows exactly what to do with them.
So we’ve given her a name around here: The Voice in the Dark.
You’ll be hearing her first in Lesbian Hotwife, with more Riley Blackstone stories planned afterward. She’s also recorded a new introduction for Risa, and hearing her say “Welcome to Risa” for the first time made me realize that this wasn’t simply going to be another way to release my stories. It gives them another life, and allows the intimate moments I write on the page to become something even more personal when they’re given a voice.
So, everyone, meet Ellyn. She’s going to be spending quite a bit of time in Riley Blackstone’s world, lending her voice to the romance, the tenderness, the teasing, and, yes, all of those deliciously explicit moments I know you’re really waiting to hear.
I’ve written the words. Now I can’t wait for you to hear what Ellyn does with them.
