A neat worldbuilding move from Aurora Winter: magic strength varies by world conditions. In her multiverse, oxygen levels affect how much magic is even available, so every portal jump changes the stakes.
That’s the sort of detail that forces character choices instead of just decorating the setting.

One of my favourite practical points from my chat with narrator Liza Jacob: space changes voice.

A vast hall wants a different delivery than a tight, enclosed room. The setting isn’t just backdrop, it’s performance direction. If you write speculative fiction, this is a useful way to sanity-check whether your world is actually on the page.

Writers: here’s a thought. If your worldbuilding is vague, your audiobook narrator ends up making decisions on your behalf.
I spoke with audiobook narrator Liza Jacob about how she uses what’s on the page to choose accents, distance, intimacy, and even how a space “sounds” at the mic. If you don’t give her enough to go on, she still has to perform it… which means guesswork. Learn how to fix this.
