I am doing a series of narrations for video on a website. When I sent the link to Frank he responded that he told me to find my niche, but this is not what he had in mind, LOL.

My Niche

No hint implied, but they paid fast. I can hear the bad jokes now...but somebody has to do it.

Greg - I'm sure it was an honor that they chose you...

There was a long line of VO talent just dying to do that spot.

You certainly urn'ed the paycheck.

You think I'm going to crypt my way into this thread and make an ash of myself? Not on your life. Not this one, or the next one.

It wasn't until my parent's passed away and I fulfilled their wishes to be cremated, that I discovered that the ashes of the dear departed are referred to as cremains. The box from the mortuary was labeled the Tremaine's Cremains.
Sorry for the ghoulishness.

I like the read. Gives new meaning to 'The voice you can trust.'
I didn't see any niche's lined with Furlex for dead Voice Actors.

I offered to audition for that job, but Mort, the director, passed on it.
So I gave up the ghost.
Glad you got the gig, Greg

I was hoping for a little more dead pan but it was lovely all the same.
