Praise for Matthew's Voiceover Work

"Reader Matt Ward, a U.K.-based professional, makes Pages 641 to 646 sound oddly alluring with his British accent."
– Erika Lovley, Politico, re: Hear the Bill, 2009.
(N.B. The reading was performed using an educated Britsh accent.)

"Wow, Matt - that gave me goosebumps ... Your voice sounds spot-on to me. Good accent, not overdone at all."
– Ian, professional writer, Australia, re: audio reading of his story 'Breakdown Lane', for the Critters Bar writing group.
(N.B. The role called for a coarse, Australian accent.)

"Matt, I just listened to the clip and I can't help admire your brilliance of speech imitation. You sound just like a guy from our subcontinent. It's something you should be really proud of. Great work!!"
– Ernest Dempsey, re: audio reading of a story by writer JohnnyElvis , 'Goodbye Now', for the Skive Magazine online forum.
(N.B. Matthew performed several roles, including that of a Pakistani man, and that of a Liverpudlian Scouser, too. Ernest is a Pakistani national.)
