About

Hello! I'm Daphne

I'm a full-time audiobook narrator and voice actor with over 30 published titles and two award nominations. From laugh-out-loud rom-coms to heart-melting holiday romances and romantasies, my bright but versatile voice captivates listeners in solo, dual, duet and multicast productions.

 

I have a master's in biology and a minor in Spanish, earned while competing as an NCAA athlete in cross country and track. After graduating I spent two years in forestry research with the US Forest Service, then became a CrossFit coach — so yes, I can pronounce the science, and I never miss a deadline.

 

When I'm not in my sound-engineer-designed studio in Northern Wisconsin (raw noise floor of −70 dB) bringing book boyfriends to life, you'll find me curled up with a seasonal latte and the latest small-town holiday romance, renovating with my husband, hiking, or spoiling my four cats. I'd love to voice your next grumpy-sunshine, fake-dating, or mythical-creature HEA.

— Daphne

SIMON MAVERICK

Daphne was professional and great to work with. She always communicated with where were were in the project. If curveballs were thrown, she reached out and let me know ahead of time. She worked great with her duet partner and the audiobooks she completed were beautiful. It's easy to see why readers cherish the way she voices FMCs! Not all narrators take accent training so seriously but Daphne does. She consistently hones her craft. Moreover, unlike some other narrators, Daphne will also promote the title and be a partner in your publishing journey. I hope to work with her again.

Testimonials

What authors say

This was my first time putting out an audiobook and I couldn't have done it without Daphne. She walked me through every step, helped me find male narrators, and answered all of my questions. Her communication is top tier and she was incredibly timely with everything. Daphne handled my characters with so much love and care and did an incredible job voicing them. She also came up with a voice for a bonus chapter from a different point of view and I loved the direction she went with. I'd work with Daphne again in a heart beat and I recommend her to any author looking for a narrator!

Courtney Corlew

Author of A Demon's Bargain, Hexed for the Holiday, & Mated for the Holiday

As an indie author, I hired Daphne Winters to narrate the female voices in my spicy debut novel, and working with her was a fantastic experience. Daphne brought the story to life with a clear, engaging voice, thoughtful pacing, and professional attention to detail. In the dual-POV narration, she had great chemistry with Dameon Knight, who voiced the male characters. Communication was smooth throughout the project, deadlines were met, and the final recording exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Daphne to anyone seeking a talented, dependable audiobook narrator for female voices. Would welcome an opportunity to work with Daphne again!

Maude Winters

Author of Royally Rebellious and Yachts & Yuletide

You are a fabulous narrator and I'll be recommending you to other authors looking for a female narrator.

Samantha Baca

Author of Blame It on the Carols

The wide variety of voices Daphne can create sets her apart from just any narrator, and she has the perfect balance of fluent reading to emotional performances. Each word from her lips brings the story to life, and I was honored to work with her on my recent release. She's punctual, kind, communicated, and is always willing to go the extra mile for her authors. 10/10 would recommend any author looking for a female narrator to check out Daphne Winters!

Larissa Antonioni

Author of The Curse Before Christmas & The Arcane Realm Series

I am an independent author/self-published and had never realized I could put a voice to my work until I saw a post from Daphne on Threads. I had zero clue what an audiobook entailed, what the process was, what was needed, or what costs looked like. Daphne took the time to walk me through it all-from average costs, what the cost includes, what the difference in narration style was, and even went as far as creating a platform we could collect auditions for from male narrators. In short, she not only did an amazing job narrating my novel, but she educated me, and included me in each step along the way. If you are hesitant about investing in an audiobook, I'd highly recommend working with Daphne! She's patient, understands that her success means your success, and, of course, she's also phenomenal at creating the voice that brings your words to life!

Nicole Crystal

Author of Swinging For The Fence & the Playing The Game Series

Excellent communication and outstanding work. I highly recommend Daphne — she's fantastic to work with!
