If she were a real person, I would totally want to hang out with her. Getting to know her through that and just being so charmed by how funny and witty and interesting she is.

Just because I was not only inside of her story, but inside her mind and how she was experiencing this story. My favorite character was playing Gracie, who is also the narrator of the story. I had a lot of fun differentiating all of those characters, especially the ones that were slightly different from each other and had to end up talking to each other at certain moments. Especially since this is an audio experience, it was really important to me that the choice I was making for each character - the way they sounded, how they delivered their lines - was because of something about their character or who they were or what they were trying to get from the other person in that moment. Part of my process is about spending time thinking about who these people are and what their wants and their desires are and what that might say about how they sound or how they might say something. I read the whole book before I recorded it.
