Guest voice actor, and singer artist, Annie D. Davis, her producer and her voiceover coach will join us to talk about Annie’s work, and audiobook production.
How do you become a voice actor without sight? We know you will enjoy this exciting discussion and episode as we learn about the opportunities, details, and process of producing audiobooks and more. Annie is not only a voice actor, but also a singer and standup comedian. For more information, read the about Annie section below and visit her website.
Special feature! Cheryl and Annie will discuss the recording and production of Cheryl’s newest audiobook.
About Annie
Annie Donnellon holds a bachelor’s degree in Vocal Music Performance from Northern Kentucky University. For many years, people have often described her voice as joyful, lyrical, and upbeat—an ideal combination for the genres of religious inspiration, self-help, children’s, and literary fiction.
As an actor, Annie has been known to play the motherly roles: Marilla in “Anne Of Green Gables,” Constance in Lillian Hellman’s “The Autumn Garden,” and Titania, the fairy queen in Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” Her authoritative yet lyrical vocal qualities are well-suited for children’s and young adult literature.
Annie’s mission as a narrator is to give both children and young adults the thrilling audiobook experience that she herself received growing up. When not narrating audiobooks, Annie can be found cooking, writing, or doing a variety of exercises.

What a special treat! An exciting interview with Margaret Mizushima! This accomplished author of the Timber Creek K9 mysteries series brings insight, laughter and encouragement to writers of all levels. Enjoy this episode as readers and writers ask questions and learn about what inspires her and how she has developed her craft of writing over her years of success.
About Margaret Mizushima
Margaret Mizushima is the author of the award-winning and internationally published Timber Creek K-9 Mysteries. Active within the writing community, Margaret serves as past president for the Rocky Mountain Chapter of Mystery Writers of America, was elected the 2019 Writer of the Year by Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers, and is also a member of Northern Colorado Writers, Sisters in Crime, and Women Writing the West. She and her husband recently moved from their home in Colorado to the Pacific Northwest.
Margaret was born in Kansas and grew up on cattle ranches in Texas and Colorado. Her childhood summers were spent either on horseback herding cows or nestled in the crook of a tree reading a library book..
Due to volunteer experiences in high school, she
pursued a degree in Speech Pathology, which she received from Colorado State University after completing her undergraduate degree at the University of Northern Colorado.
Later, she married a veterinarian, and they have two daughters. Margaret worked as a speech therapist in an acute care hospital before establishing her own agency.
After she sold her company, she decided to study the art and craft of fiction writing. What a wondrous world this opened up for me.
Margaret says, “Whereas before, I’d been driven by the science of speech, language, and communication disorders, I could now focus on artistic creativity with language. I could also use my years of experience working with people to create characters that readers seemed to enjoy. Since I’m an avid crime fiction reader and crime documentary watcher, mystery writing seemed like the way to go.”
In addition to reading, Margaret enjoys yoga and hiking in the Colorado high country.

Zoomng in from Wales, we have a a very special guest author interview, Victoria Zigler. An ACB member, Tori will discuss her many short stories, books, and poetry writing, which span children’s stories, fantasy, science fiction and more. Toi understands the“pesky“ issues of editing or writing work, but she also has experienced loss of sight across her lifetime. Join us as we discuss her work, as well as the approaches and strategies she uses for success.
Based on her exciting life, we know this will be an informative and inspirational event! We look forward to you participating with us and bringing your questions.
About Victoria Zigler “Tori” (information adapted from her website)
Tori says, “I’m a blind vegan poet and children’s author, who was born and raised in the shadow of the Black Mountains of Wales, UK, spent some time living in Alberta, Canada, and Hastings, England, UK – returning to Wales in between.
“Despite spending far too much time in hospital, and eventually losing my sight to Congenital Glaucoma, I’ve been writing since I was old enough to know how, with no plans to stop any time soon. I have a long list of publications to my name, including several poetry collections, **manny children’s stories, a story in the sci-fi and fantasy anthology Wyrd Worlds II, three poems in the Poetry Treasures anthology, and a poem in the Stand Together charity anthology.
“Vegan due to both a love for animals and dairy allergy, as well as an Eclectic Pagan, I would describe myself as a combination of Hermione Granger and Luna Lovegood from the Harry Potter books: Hermione’s thirst for knowledge and love of books, combined with Luna’s wandering mind and alternative way of looking at the world. I have a wide variety of interests, designed to exercise both the creative and logical sides of my brain, which I dabble in at random depending on what I feel like doing at any given time, and am most likely to be found playing with my petkids, involved in calls with the ACB Community, curled up somewhere with a cup of tea and a book, working on some kind of craft project, or trying to keep one step ahead of those pesky typo fairies while writing my own books.”
Tori is now back to living in Wales, along with my Canadian husband, Kelly, and our petkids – a West Highland White Terrier named Lilie, a Cavapoo named Logan, and a Hermann’s Tortoise named Artemis.
Her books are available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and smashwords.
