Thank you for buying my file. I regret that you were not entirely pleased. I have made alot of files. If you search my name, you will see that I experimented extensively with TTS files. Some of them may be more to your liking, and many of them are free files now. I took some time out from making files, and my voice is a little out of practice; so you might find future files to be better too. However, I hope you will give this file some more time to work on you. No, it\'s not a musical female voice that\'s a pleasure to listen to, no matter what it is saying. But it\'s more female than a TTS voice, because it can use female inflection and speech patterns. The problem with TTS is that there is no poetry, no rhythm, no intonation. I don\'t really like the sound of my voice, either; but the file knocks me out cold. I don\'t even know the content without reading the script, because I am out cold when I hear it. No TTS can do the things I can do with my voice. I think that if you get over your disappointment about the voice, stop listening with your critical mind and let the file do its job, you may find that the file works better than you initially thought. I must disagree with one thing though, where you say that I assume the listener is not very feminine. I\'m transgender. I\'ve lived full time as a woman for five years. I work as a woman, and I have performed on stage as a woman in straight venues, including my church. I am very feminine and I wrote this file for me, not for you or other listeners. The operates from the assumption that other transwomen also have a part of their brain that tries to make them feel inadequate as a woman, and that combating these stray thoughts and minor doubts is a never-ending struggle.
