A.Nonymous
In this episode, Justine is joined by Australian actor Grant Cartwright all the way from New York City. Together they will be diving into the use of pseudonyms in the audiobook industry. That is, a fictitious name, or alias, used by narrators in the industry. They offer some privacy and protection for a narrator’s real name and allows them to venture into “off-portfolio” or “off-brand” genres, such as erotica and political titles, content that could be perceived as “controversial”. This is more common than listeners might know - and there are a fair few ways narrators might go about this.
