Fiction skills for an audiobook narrator

First a few definitions:

Solo narration – when a reader either differentiates between each character with their voice (different pitch, race, gender, accent and so on), or, when they do not, and presents a ‘straight’ narrated read with no variation between the different people in the text.

Narrator – the person telling the story as written by the author, and also the word used for you, the person who is recording the story – perhaps giving a voice to the ‘written narrator’ the person whose viewpoint the story is written from (more on this below).

Dialogue - a scene in which the different characters verbally interact with each other
