Cathi Colas’ voice will confidently take the hand of your listeners and guide them to the beating heart of your book. Hearing her narration made me feel as if she’d given my book a second life. And, honestly, that's exactly what she did. I couldn’t be more grateful. -Jamie Zerndt, author of Jerkwater
"I couldn't have asked for a harder working, more professional and thoughtful person to narrate Sunray Alice than Cathi Colas. She communicated with me throughout the entire process, an aspect I greatly appreciated, and in the end, her masterful voice work and keen insights honed Alice's story into a superb, heart-wrenching audio experience."
Cathi Colas was a joy to work with on my audiobook, "Jim River Boy". Right from the start she communicated clearly and responded to emails in a very timely manner. All through the narrating process she kept me informed of the status of the project. She encouraged feedback and input, ensuring the final product was what I had envisioned. A true professional! I highly recommend her services! ~MJ Ulmer, author of "Jim River Boy"
“It was a fantastic partnership! Cathi not only showed incredible dedication and passion for my project, she helped me make key changes that didn’t translate well from written to spoken word. Her skills as a narrator and voice actress were superb and she was able to truly capture the deeply emotional scenes in my book. All and all it was a great experience working with Cathi and I highly recommend her services. “
I can’t begin to tell you what a pleasure it was to work with Cathi. She is a natural storyteller and she stood out from a hundred auditions I received for my mystery series. From the minute I heard her warm, accessible voice, I knew she would bring the characters to life, especially the protagonist. That she did. In addition to being skilled with voicing multiple characters, she has proven to be a diligent worker with a lot of good ideas. Highly recommended.
Working with Cathi Colas on three separate books has been a joy. Her range of accents is extremely impressive. One novel had a southern lilt to it, which she nailed. Another book was Hispanic in nature, and again she captured the characters with flawless delivery. Her professionalism and commitment to making a high-quality product went beyond all my expectations.
Cathi would offer helpful suggestions. I understood them and approved them time and again. Cathi is a hard-working narrator that understands the business, and I look forward to working with her in the future.
Sincerely,
Richard A. DeVall
Cathi has a great narration style and the unique ability to read a scene exactly how it was written. Listening to her narration was like listening to the voice inside my head when I write! Working with her is easy and pleasant. She communicates well throughout the project! She works in a timely and efficient manner and we finished ahead of schedule! Listen-throughs are an absolute joy. Mistakes were practically nonexistent. Cathi embodies a professional in every sense. We were extremely fortunate to work with such a talented and hard-working narrator to bring Cleopatra’s Tomb to life!
"Working with Cathi was an absolute pleasure. She is an incredibly talented actress, and she was able to convey some very powerful emotions in her role as Tammy Raffordy in the audio drama podcast I directed; Foreward. She went above and beyond to make sure I had exactly what I needed, and I can say without a doubt that the episodes she contributed to are the most intense pieces of media I have ever heard in my life. It wouldn't have been possible without her."
Thank you,
Taylor Fraser

First, Cathi’s voice was by far the best when we chose her from over 20+ auditions. Her intonation, inflection, and passion throughout the entire reading met all of our expectations for how the book was expected to sound when it is read. Simply put, she brought life to our book! There isn’t a question if I would hire her to do our next book, and I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in creating an audible book.
Cathi did a fantastic job narrating my book, Jewel in the Mud. Her voice, style, and approach were just perfect for the style of the book. All the way through, Cathi was professional and delivered the finished audio well ahead of time. I can't praise her highly enough.
From the moment I listened to Cathi audition, to when she completed the final recording, she was such a joy to work with! Hearing her read my book, and bringing it to life through her tone, energy, and emotion brought tears streaming down my face more than once! She truly embodied the feeling I was hoping to convey to the reader. This was my first experience having a book transferred to audio, and I could not have hoped for a better artist than Cathi Colas. She is a rock star! Michelle Baker
