Morning Folks,
So I finally watched the last Kyle XY episode… another series canceled without tying up all the loose ends of the storyline. And as I was watching the show I remembered a song that was (as far as I know) written specifically for this show. It’s called “She Could Be You” by the artist Shawn Hlookoff (thats his head shot up above).
The opening lyric is the title of this post.
Haunted by this photograph… don’t know why

Hello All,
I read this blog post a few weeks ago… and its implications have been stuck in my head ever since.
I wanted to share it with you in case you didnt have a chance to read it on Voice Over Universe. The writer is James Herron and he talks about his experience with BBS Syndrome:
” I had been finding that some days by 11 am my voice was beginning to fatigue. If you rely on your voice as your livelihood as I do, this can be particularly troublesome.
I first noticed this issue about a year ago. What was going on? What the heck was causing this to occur? Was it something serious? Was it environmental?

Good Morning Folks, Sorry about not posting that many voice over related posts lately... I've been stuck doing a complete revamp of the advertising company I work for... We recently landed an affiliation with a major global advertising firm and for some reason I, the guy who brokered part of the deal, am also stuck redoing all the branding for our modest 150 plus employee company.
