Do you suffer from white line fever?
Went to see She Stoops to Conquer at the theatre last night and the lead actor’s delivery suffered from a form of “white line fever” - h e k e p t t h e s a m e p a c e f o r e v e r y l i n e. Notice how hard it is to pick up the meaning when there aren’t breaks and variations in pace? It’s a sure way to lose your audience in an interview too - particularly for radio or podcasts.
As part of your interview preparation, be sure to record yourself and listen back - do you have enough variation in your voice, not simply to keep your audience interested, but to properly convey your meaning?
