The passage:

See above those clouds, near where the blue sky appears to fold? Some say it is the entrance to the floating isles where pirates still rule the air and dragons choose to live. Only the most skilled pilots can sail their craft close enough to even glimpse the light coming from within. You can't find those who know the way; they find you. Rather, you four lazy tourists must learn from your books and be ready, so that you may not miss an opportunity to travel to that mysterious place. It would be an adventure that you would never forget. Now, I think that's enough with this pleasurable story telling. Go home and join your aunt - she's cooking fine food!


How to name your video and what to put into the description:

After you've made your video, name it "Worldwide Accent Project - [your accent location]" (for example, I would name mine "Worldwide Accent Project - Keswick, Cumbria, England", and include the following text in the description.... "This is my contribution to the Worldwide Accent Project, which is a collaboration project made by YouTubers from around the world, with the intention of creating a global accent archive. Anybody can participate, even if English is not your first language. Please go to this video www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8VTuM129HA for more information, and to submit your own!"

I'm an Ohioan. I don't detect as much of a Arizonan accent as I would typically associate with that part of the country. I think you have a good speaking voice, enunciate well, etc., and I find that many people who speak well and enunciate clearly exhibit less of their regional accent than their neighbors.

Arizona people in the know, even putting secret messages into the script, uh huh I noticed.

Are you of Native American descent... you sure look it, and very gorgeous I must say too. And your accent is extremely neutral, very mild and seems like a general American accent to me. You know I'm from Southern Ontario Canada and I say Aunt like ''Ant'' as well, I had no idea that was irregular lol.
