31-Day Blog Challenge - Day 16: My Dream Job

I already touched on this one in my 20 Facts post last week. If I could have any job besides the one I have, it would be to run a great recording studio. The one where the best folks had to go because Phil is the guy then need. It would be so fun because I’d finally be working in the music business, and I’d meet all the people I want to meet, and help them make fantastic music, working with top shelf equipment and learning from everyone who came in the door. .

I’m gonna go a little further and give you my OTHER dream job, the one that would actually be more attainable than running the best recording studio in the world...

My secret love is voice acting. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to be a voice actor/audiobook narrator/announcer. Oddly enough, my degree aligns with this more closely than it does to anything at which I’ve ever actually worked. I love messing around with my voice, I love creating characters, and I love that I am articulate and can both write and read copy well. I’m no Don LaFontaine, but I can also do pretty convincing radio stingers.

These are nothing remotely close to what I actually do for a living now. I don’t know why I never tried to do either of these things, other than being really scared of being broke. :)

So, yeah, just learned something I don’t like about myself. Go figure. :) I guess that's why this challenge is important.
