by Robbie Samuels | Apr 15, 2025 | Networking, Podcast, Professional Development | 0 comments

I’m pleased to interview one of our Biz Book Pub Hub Partners. Our Hub Partners are experts who support entrepreneurs along their author journey.

Today’s guest is a seasoned voiceover coach, audiobook narrator, and technologist dedicated to helping authors bring their books to life in audio format. With nearly 50 years of experience in broadcasting, voice work, and on-camera acting, he understands the nuances of performance, production, and the power of storytelling through sound.

As the creator of Narrate Your Own Book, he specializes in teaching authors how to narrate their own audiobooks with confidence and professionalism. His comprehensive program goes beyond basic recording techniques, offering training in performance, technical skills, and industry standards, ensuring authors produce high-quality audiobooks they can be proud of.

Through his award-winning VOHeroes training program, he has coached thousands of students, guiding them through the art, science, and business of audiobook narration. His mission is to equip authors with the skills and tools they need to transform their written words into engaging audio experiences that meet professional standards on platforms like Audible’s ACX.

Please join me in welcoming David H. Lawrence XVII.
