Writing for the eye is not the same as writing for the ear—and that’s where many repurposing efforts fall flat.
In this episode of Stop Rewind Play, I dive into what it really takes to transform written or live content into audio that lands. Whether you're adapting a longform article, a daily briefing, or a livestream highlight, you’ll need more than just a mic and a read-aloud script.
Tune in to hear:🖊 How to rewrite for the ear—making your script conversational, clear, and punchy🎙 Why your mic should feel like a one-to-one conversation🎧 How to add texture with music, ambient sound, and vocal variation
From voice tone to structure to pacing, I share practical insights from working on daily podcasts, livestream edits, and even my own journey reshaping Stop Rewind Play from newsletter to audio.
