Update: things didn't pick up, got worse, less sleep lol.

A nice change would be so welcome right now, gosh.

Had two stressful things happen yesterday that has quite frankly sent me into extreme worry mode - I couldn't even sleep because of it, so I'm basically a zombie today. 🧟‍♀️

I hope things pick up.

It's been about 15 or more years since I watched it, and this was Craig's first time.

Defo pulled different heart strings this time round - watching as an adult compared to young teen me was a sensitive trip. S1 remains fun but slow, but the payoff in S2 is so worth it. 🥹

Just finished rewatching Clannad (+After Story) and had a moment where I went to cry as it was so so sad, tears formed but instead, I kinda hyperfocused on the curry I was eating to stop it.

Then turned to Craig... he literally did the same thing. 🤣🍛

10 games to get to know me! 🎮

This was super hard to decide, there's so many others I wanted to add! 😱🔥

Helping my neighbours to pack their things/car as they are moving away this weekend, but I'm just trying not to cry the whole time. 😭 they've been so good to us.

Friends moving away is always such a sad time, I struggle with changes like this. 🥺

2 fillings at the dentists means no VO work for a few days. A tragic week! 🥲

Glad I got all my auditions for the week done already!

I got to visit the town where Hot Fuzz was filmed! 👮‍♂️🦢👮‍♂️

Was so cool to see spots from one of my favourite films. (And visit the shop to have a Cornetto... obviously.) 🥰

Gotta love the jumpscare of filing your tax return and seeing how much you gotta pay soon. 💀 Timed it well with spooky month! 👻

I really need to find a way of navigating my VO jobs whenever I get a goiter in my neck, though. Thyroid conditions absolutely suck, but I won't give up on what I love! 🥺🪷

Despite being pretty upset with my healthcare situ and a couple of other personal worries, I feel like I did some nice auditions today. 🥹

Like, when I was doing them, I thought it all was going to be terrible, but listening back - I'm happy with most of them. Can't wait to get them all submitted. 💜

Gross 🕷 story!

I woke up at 3am with an itchy chest. Turns out it was a spider & it got squashed. 😰

I got up, it fell off & I then saw it was carrying an egg sack... I'd squashed eggs all over my chest. Ran into the bathroom freaking out... I'm still feeling sick thinking about it. 🥲

3am chaos. 😭

Had a fun video game VO session yesterday! 💜🎙👀

Golly... it's time for a role announcement! 🕰

Crush Crush brought me back for a new voice role... please say hello to Polly - a cheeky British time traveller! 🙌🎙

Huge thanks + love for the team at Sad Panda Studios - I had so much fun recording her quirky voice lines! 🤎

Cheeky lil screenshot... 📸

Finally got a few small VO jobs in after a bit of dry spell (well, more self-inflicted stress rest, but still!)

Really hope the rest of this year brings some fun and busy projects. 💜✨️

(OH, I also updated my website AGAIN, but I'm not sure if I prefer the old homepage hero or the new video one 🙈)

Working on more updates to my website atm... SEO and performance being my focus. 🫡

Can't wait to add some new reels to it in the future too! 💜

I've had a pretty rough couple of months in the VO world with distressing project situations + seemingly being a magnet for generative AI projects. It's been hard to not feel defeated.

But, I had a really nice long audition session yesterday in the booth, so hopefully things will pick up soon. 💖

Building my first voice-acting vocal booth I wanted to make a post about how I made my first vocal booth space. This is mostly me discusing how I made mine, however I guess it could be considered a tutorial of some sorts - though I'm sure ther...

I've been writing this for months, but I think I need to unleash it finally... 🙈

I wrote a blog about how I built my first vocal booth recording space for voiceover! 🎙

I just wanted to share my experience. It's a long read, so a cup of tea and snack is advised. 💖

Ahh I can't wait to post my new Visual Voiceover Reel soon!~ Just waiting on 1 role release before I can post it. 👀

Yesterday, I listened back to some auditions I sent off, and it kinda shocked me how it didn’t sound like me. Like, I can maintain that voice, but it just sounded so... not normal me and way too cool. 😆

I don't know if that's normal or bad, but it was funny and weird!

Decided to get out the house for a bit and go to Brighton.

I'll likely pop into Develop. Though I have no idea what to expect, and I’m an ultra shy gremlin who needs to muster up courage so... we shall see! 🙈

A little bit of Brighton retail therapy will also be nice. 👌

Still sad, life is rough.
BUT I managed to successfully make dango last night, at least! 🍡🍡🍡🍡

(I made Hanami Dango but also made some sweet sticky soy sauce that you'd usually get with Mitarashi Dango... just to dip it in, as it's yummy 🥰)

Like, I say criticised, but I don't even mean helpful. Just... dislike of my work (unless it benefits them for bragging) & refusal to hear me talk about any of it.

I'll probably delete this tomorrow cause I'm just sad right now, but yeah... it's hard to push on sometimes when their words haunt me.

Man, I don't know how to write this without coming across as misery guts...

But having a passion that's criticised and clearly not worth talking about by a parent breaks my heart somedays.

Part of my success is from pushing myself even with this lack of acceptance, but gosh - it hurts sometimes.

😲 Yaaay, let's goooo Taylor - lovely to be in a project with you!! 👏

Congrats to you also! ✨️

Forteller Gloomhaven Second Edition, Audio Narrative Companion release. Shelley Hunter voices Hazel, Valrath Surgeon and Vermling Ally.

Yay! @fortellergames.com have released their latest audio narration project: Gloomhaven Second Edition!

I'm pleased to say that I got to voice a few characters in this one. Huge amount of love for the Forteller team. 💜

My Steam "I voice in this" folder is growing. 🥰 So nice to see them compiled together.

I've decided one of my "stop working for once" pointless tasks for this week is going to be to try and make dango. 🍡

I do love living near so many Asian supermarkets to get ingredients from easy. 🤟 Wish me luck! ❤️
