TONIGHT ONLINE - ALSO RECORDED FOR YOU ...
AWARD-WINNING AUDIOBOOK DIRECTOR PAUL RUBEN

HERE'S WHAT ATTENDEES OF PAUL'S  
EARLIER WEBINARS TELL US ...

Thank you so much for the seminar last night! Being a professional actor, I was familiar with a lot of what Paul was saying and "got it." I found him to be quite affable and engaging! I look forward to utilizing his techniques. - TR

He gave us some really nice Golden Nuggets that will serve me well for many years to come. When I listen back later today, I'm sure to discover even more. -BL

His insights into accessing the subtext and his wonderful ability to guide us there is awesome - in the true sense of the word. Mr. Ruben wants to get as many good narrators out there reading compelling stories as he can. -APO

I really enjoyed the webinar with Paul Ruben and found it very informative AND practical. -PO
 
Paul Ruben was great. To be honest, at first, I thought, oh dear, another expert who is not good at articulating or teaching others. But I kept listening and taking notes and by the end realized how excellent his information is to interpreting script, whether for narrating an audiobook, but also for acting a script. So glad he is willing to share his information. I love this type of specific information with examples.  So good for beginners! -LW

"I really enjoyed tonight's webinar. Can't wait to start applying to my reads of audiobooks and other things for that matter." - HB
