Shadow Tag (Louise Erdrich): And Introducing My Voice
My book club is reading Louise Erdrich's Shadow Tag this month and I decided to shoot a quick intro to the book. I'm sorry.
On the bright side, I learned how to cut outall most of my UHMs, AHHs and HMMs. On the downside, I did zero prep for this. On the otherother, farfar away bright side, the really far side with rainbows, sunshine and leprechauns, I will get better at this.
Bear with me.

hi, bronwyn's voice!
i enjoyed that, because i could feel like i was working *while* listening to you. instead of merely procrastinating as per the norm.
i sympathize with not knowing how names are pronounced - i'm always thrown for a loop at movies-based-on-books when it turns out i had it wrong. (hermione, anyone?)
also, more ambient light, maybe?
(my word verification is 'swaforse'. what on earth is that?
I cut a part where I tried to pronounce "Pulitzer."
Pew-litzer?
Pull-itzer?
I dunno.
Next time I will use more light, less face, more volume. It's a steep learning curve.
Thanks K! I feel a little less like a dweeb.
I love the vlogs! keep them comin
Great job! That's my problem with video too--not knowing how to pronounce names.
I think it's Pew-litzer.
I really liked the book. Dark! I hope to post something on it soon.
Thanks Pilks and Julie!
I still haven't read the book b/c I'm trying to plow through the new Martin Amis. It manages to be both tedious and amusing, sort of like being tickled by a blade of grass.
You did a great job. I haven't even thought of doing a video. eeks. NOw I almost feel as though I know you, before you were mainly someone that I traded the occasional email with, now you are a 'real' person.
Ha! Yep Heather, unfortunately I'm all too real. :) It would be kind of nice if I could attach a short video to my pitch emails being all like, "hey I'm Bronwyn, totally not a spam bot!"
The vlog thing is easier on the wrists but strangely tricky in the "not seeming like a weirdo" category.
