From the first time I heard Jim Tedder’s voice, I knew I had found the voice of my character, Bogie McGruder. What I didn’t realize was the wide range of voices he uses while narrating a book. He did a magnificent job with The Girl in White Pajamas and has just finished The Girl in Black Pajamas. These books are murder mysteries with a variety of characters and accents. Jim Tedder mastered them all and completed both books long before the deadlines. I’m trying to pressure him into doing the third book in the trilogy in the near the future because he IS Bogie McGruder. Chris Birdy, author and publisher
“Jim Tedder has delivered excellent narrations for us and is a pleasure to work with.” — Margy Bauman, publisher, University Press Audiobooks.
Jim Tedder has not only the most amazing professional voice, but he is the consummate professional to work with. He worked tirelessly and narrated my book in half the time allotted, and he checked in at every milepost to make certain he was doing what I had envisioned. He is a master at this and a true joy to work with. –Elizabeth Engstrom
“James Tedder has narrated three of my books: COURTING MURDER, RIVER MOURN, and BLOODY EARTH. He consistently meets or beats deadlines and the work he turns out is outstanding. He deserves and gets my unqualified recommendation!”
— Bill Hopkins
“Jim Tedder’s narrative voice and professionalism are unmatched in my experience, and the two projects we worked on together are better off because of what he brought to the table. He is punctual, and had no problem completing either narration in the agreed upon time, and his attention to detail took several sections that could have been a weak point of my story and instead made them the strongest. I know he is selective as to which projects he picks up, but if you are lucky enough to sign a contract with him then you are already halfway to success.”
— Robert DeMayo
