Sounds and sound effects can appeal to us on a vicarious rather than a conscious level, connecting the listener with the author’s intended message in a deeper way in our understanding and emotions than words. This brings immediate clarity to the message and can join everyone in enjoying the author’s tale.

Let Becky fire your imagination and creativity with a few interesting examples to inspire you to to play with this concept to create more lively, dynamic, and active relationships with your story and characters.
