would have deemed the whole radio ad perfection after
the first take. It was dog food, for cripes sake!
"What seems to be the problem with this last take?"
"I sound a little flat." Victor Clyde was a stout man
with gray hair thinning at the temples, and a nose that
reminded Josie of a dachshund. He stood in the studio with headphones clamped over his ears, listening as the
tape played again, and waved his arms theatrically. "I
want it to sound exciting."
