One of England's busiest practitioners, Penny Dyer has plenty to say about her work. "I always speak in the accent that I'm teaching," she says, as she teaches "a place for the voice."

Pre-script (as opposed to Post-Script): Many of my blog posts are written while I was sitting on the couch watching syndicated runs of “Charmed” on TBS. Long live the DVR.
I’ve had some pretty encouraging news for my career lately. I just shot a guest starring role in a web series called “50 to Death” - I will be in episode 6 where I get to show off a couple of notes singing (can’t tell you what the episode is about, though!) While I was on set, I met 2 grad students from NYU who seemed to enjoy the work I was doing. We exchanged contact information - one of them has a project he is casting and he was interested in having me audition (I ended up getting an appointment for Sunday.)
I also got an email from a composer/writer I know from the Bay Area (California) who has a pilot he has written. Here’s the email he wrote to me:
“Do you visit SF often? I may have a script for you. I actually wrote it thinking of you....“
Turns out the role is for the lead character in this pilot- and it looks like FUN! So, we are going to talk and find out how we could work the logistics of having me shoot it. How frickin’ awesome would that be???
What else... Oh, I have the agent meeting this Wednesday. Send me positive thoughts around 4pm Eastern Standard Time.

Darbi and Roz have been so busy working (and trying to get Barack Obama elected!!!) that we haven’t been very good about answering listener emails. We make up for it today with an “all listener q & a” episode. Questions from listeners like Tony Robinette, whom you see right here. We love his headshot, btw!
