I have been reading a Dean Koontz book called "Odd Thomas" and the narrator is twenty year old male. Randomly, I noticed the voice in my head as I was reading. It was the voice of a twenty-ish year old male's voice. I couldn't tell you if it's a voice I have heard before, but it was neat to realize. After realizing it, the voice changed to James Earl Jones. Who doesn't love his voice? I've noticed that the voices do change from character to character, especially the main character's mother. She is depicted in her rose garden, behind her Victorian house, wearing a yellow sun dress with a match bonnet. Doesn't that sound Southern to you? It does to me and she was speaking in a Southern accent, which I tried to changed because the setting is in California.
I asked Brian and Lilian what voice do they hear when they are reading. Their response: I've never thought about that.
Fun fact:

"I was a stutterer. I couldn't talk. So my first year of school was my first mute year, and then those mute years continued until I got to high school."
