How did you come to performing audiobooks?

I'm an Irish / British actor and was eager to start narrating audiobooks years ago, as a pure form of storytelling I could do from my own studio. I was always away on tour and filming, but wanted work I could do from home which satisfied my creativity when not working away from home. Audiobooks were the perfect fit. I love them, and am so grateful I get to do this every day.
