San Jose Mercury News – May 30th, 2013

By Simon on June 4, 2013 in Press

A nice article by Lou Fancher at the San Jose Mercury news. A few weeks back I gave a talk at Lafayette Libraray not far from my home and clearly Lou was in the audience… Click here for his (her?) report.

A few things didn’t quite make a true path from my mouth to the article – not least the 456 Sherlock Holmes stories I had to record… that’s 4 full length novels and 56 short stories… That’s all there are. But it’s generally accurate and I appreciate the attention it brings to audiobooks. 🙂

About Simon

Simon is an actor who found his way into audiobook narrating as a side-gig and seems to have made a success of it. With some training as an actor as a child (just a couple of hours a week, but it stuck) and 15 years working inside the BBC (ending up as one of the presenters/newsreaders on BBC Radio 4 in London) he found the ideal combination for an audiobook narrator. Found his way to California two decades ago and never left.
