Ashe Grayson: Writing Spicy Scenes, Becoming a Published Author & Voice Acting
About This Episode
π₯ WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN AUTHOR, A VOICE ACTOR, AND BOOK LOVERS GET TOGETHER? THINGS GET SPICY.
This week on Spill the Book, we're joined by the incredibly talented Ashe Grayson, an up-and-coming author and voice actor, for a conversation about writing, publishing, spicy scenes, and what it actually takes to turn the dream of becoming an author into a reality.
We get into the questions readers REALLY want to ask:
π₯ How do you write a spicy scene without making it cringe? π₯ What is it actually like becoming a published author? π₯ How do you go from writing the scene to HEARING someone perform it? π₯ What's the journey from aspiring writer to published author? π₯ How does voice acting change the way you approach a book? π₯ And what happens when your own words get performed out loud?
And because we couldn't behave ourselves, Ashe brought some scenes from her book to perform with BOOK PLAYER VA!!!!
Then we played one of our favourite games:
We take a sentence and make it HOTTER. Then MORE DRAMATIC. Then⦠whatever the hell happens next.
Because apparently one version of a perfectly innocent sentence was not enough.
If you're an aspiring author, romance reader, spicy-book lover, audiobook fan, voice-acting enthusiast, or just someone who enjoys watching book people make questionable decisions, you're going to want to watch this one.
