Do you have an example of what Nicole 'normalizes,' that the rest of us wouldn't pay attention to? How is it brought to the reader's attention? Like Napoleon Dynamite? "Why are you drinking 2% milk? Is it that you think you're fat?
Thank you for moving to substack! I'm noticing a number of people I like to follow are setting up here, and that makes it even easier for me to follow all of you!
However, what I came to comment was this. My dad owned his own business called SoundMarketing. Most of what he did was record things - whether for tapes to go into cars talking about features of new cars and the dealerships they were sold from, or for his own audio magazine, or for various recording contracts. The one thing I will never forget is that it doesn't matter how much you record your own work or someone else's work, there will *always* be um, er, uh, and long pauses that need to be edited out. Some of the most recognizable names in Hollywood recorded pieces with my dad, and they had all sorts of little things we never notice in our own speech edited out - even when they were reading scripts. That you notice them enough to be able to edit them out is actually pretty cool. You're doing good, and I look forward to listening to your podcast.
(I had to pause on the Discord side because it's all wonderful over there, but very very chatty, and I couldn't keep up!)
