[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi! My voice shakes when I do public speaking. The weird thing is that I don't actually *feel* nervous - but I can hear my voice shaking as I am speaking. So I know I sound nervous even though I'm not.

Do you have any tips about helping me not do this anymore? I have a book coming out soon - yay! - and will hopefully be doing lots and lots of readings. I'd like them to go smoothly.

Thank you!!![/quote]

Congratulations upon your book, OP ;)

Does this happen only when you need to project your voice, as you may feel the need to do when addressing a group?  Have you considered a speech therapist?  They are trained to identify and treat numerous problems like this ... it may have something to do with muscle tone.  A speech therapst should be able to identify a problem quickly and work with you to strengthen the affected areas.  My BF's daughter is about to enter her masters program for this and I'm amazed how many conditions exist.

Best to you!
