My voice is a work in progress.  Here are some samples, starting in the Fall of 2017....

It's very hard to learn feminine prosody.  Males tend to speak with a relatively monotone type of voice, while females speak in voices that glide up and down within a tonal range.  I'm still far from where I want to be, especially with the masculine resonance picked up by a microphone.  Although I have a reasonable speaking voice now, I can't project it with a loud volume.

Luckily, the sound of my voice is good enough as to not give my transgender nature away without careful listening.  It was all the effort I went through to develop this voice and to have the chance to use it enough to smooth out its rough edges.
