It's a Love Meme!

[cantarina]

Welcome to a podfic love meme! Specifically, a love meme for all contributors to the podfic community. (ty analise010 for coining that and to yue_ix for the gorgeous art below!) "Contributors" could include but isn't limited: podficcers, audiofic archivists and other infrastructure people, mods, meta writers, cover artists, and betas/cheerleaders.





Some information so that we're all on the same page!

1) Comment with your name if you want to be loved on!
Because some of us have better visibility in some parts of fandom than others, feel free to leave a short bio, links to your social media handles, links to what it is that you do, or whatever context you think is important.

2) Tell us what you want love for.
If you'd rather hear more about your podficcing than your work as an archivist, say so! If you want to hear just about your cover art, say so! If you want to hear about your modding AND your meta AND your podfic, say so! Help us make this as good an experience for you as possible.

3) Let us know if it's okay to befriend you.
With potential full-on bios floating around, we're getting into friending meme territory. If you're open to that, include that somewhere in your comment.

HAVE FUN. BE GOOD TO EACH OTHER.

I would LOVE some love! I am not picky about what it's for.

Mini-Bio: My podfic is here and I co-run the Awesome Ladies Podfic Anthology, pod_together, and also some one-off stuff (podfIDIC, theatripod). I've contributed to podfic meta conversations over the years (sometimes in ways I'm proud of, sometimes less so but I at least did my best to listen and learn), and I ran some panels at Podfication and then hosted a local meetup in February called the Podfic Winter Chillfest. I love collabs and experimental audio works and I *adore* the podfic community.

I'm up for friending, but the only place where that would really be useful is Twitter, and I'm a bit cautious about sharing my Twitter name publicly. So if you want to be Twitter friends, either PM me and I'll tell you what it is or DM a mutual friend of ours or tell me your Twitter name and I'll friend you.

[analise010]

You're an excellent member of the podfic community. You attention to detail, focus on your own podfic, supporting the community as a whole, and fostering positive feelings among us is unmatched. There's nothing that you can't do! Thank you for being a pillar of the community.

[themusecalliope]

You organize all the awesome things. We have been so lucky to have you in our community.
Also, I particularly enjoyed "Lost History: Captain America Edition." So clever.

[xdiorix]

You are a FANTASTIC mod and I've enjoyed participating in all the challenges you run. And I love how much you love podfic and the way you really try to experiment and energize the community. It's been a lot of fun getting to know you in person! <3

[were_duck]

You are SUCH an important person to me, in podfic and in life! I love your curiosity and willingness to experiment, and I still think the collabs I've done with you, esp Strange New Story, are some of the best podfic experiences of my life. <3 you do so much for the podfic community and I adore you.

[akadriver]

You're this amazing pillar of the community and your love for it really shines through. ♥ And your podfics! I need to get on reviewing the ones I've listened to, but your readings are wonderfully engaging and I find your voice very soothing as well. :D

[chestnut_pod]

The Tough Guide to Fantasy Cities is still the only TGTF podfic I know and I love it dearly. I also so so so appreciate all the work you do on Awesome Ladies- it's an incredible love fest every year and I can only imagine how much work that must take. So thanks a bunch!

[sisi_rambles]

You are a pillar and the community is so so lucky to have to here organizing and supporting it.

Lost History is an A+ podfic.

[arwen_lune]

I recently listened to your Think Once, Think twice and I love it SO MUCH. We don't share a lot of fandoms but I've just found some new things to listen to when going through your list :-)

[originally_dw]

Your podfic, specifically All the Other Ghosts, is what got me into podficcing. I still keep that one on my phone and listen to my bookmarked sections often.

I've had such a good time and met so many awesome people and beloved collaborators over the years through participating in Awesome Ladies and pod_together. Thank you for all you do!

[jinkyo]

pod_together has been the agent for some of my best audio work to date and I'm eternally grateful for the work you do on the challenge.

I also want to throw some love your way for your Pod Aware 2014 contributions (and everyone involved in that!) I listened and read most of that content when I decided podfic was a thing I could do...just as soon as a figured out what it was and how to do it.

Thank you!

[croissantkatie]

You are just amazing. Your podfic is wonderful and your love for the community is astounding. I really love how willing to experiment you are with the format and how you're always encouraging us as a community to try new things. You do so much and do it all so well. Your passion shines through so strongly. Your voice is so comfortable and delightful and your podfic consistently brings me joy. <3

[glitteryv]

You're one of the reasons why I began podficcing. So, you know, thank you for making the podfic community so warm and welcoming.;)

[greedy_dancer]

Oh man, your bandom podfics made such an impression on me!! And totally inspired me back when I was a baby podficcer. You go about podficcing in such a thoughtful way, and the attention you put into every interaction and all your podfic advocacy consistently impressed - and still impress - me.

[kansouame]

I still listen to Anatomy of a Fall probably once a year. Forever Now is right behind it. You are an amazing and prolific artist. Thanks for all your hard work and talent that you share. ^_^

[frecklebombfic]

Pod_together last year was the first podfic exchange I ever participated in, and it kind of blew my mind in terms of thinking about audio in different ways... Thank you so, so much for running such a wonderful exchange!!

[pi]

Running a panel with you was so great! You are awesome and I'm really happy to have gotten to know you through various cons <3 Your Jillian Holtzman is on point and I greatly appreciate your love of the Ghostbusters. (I already flailed at you about your awesome ladies Voltron podfic but it's definitely been added to my favorites/re-listening list so it bears repeating)

Awesome Ladies is so AWESOME and such a wonderful part of/contribution to podfic fandom. I'm always excited for it every year, whether or not I'm participating and I'm really grateful to you for helping to bring that joy to us.

And for the number of times I've listened to it, I feel I have to mention how much in love I still am with Forever, Now.

You record amazing things in many fandoms, and you give so much joy to fandom through your support of people and events and it's so awesome! You're awesome!

[idellaphod]

Your podfics are always fabulous and flawless and thoughtful, and I appreciate the work you do in the podfic community. I'm pretty sure you're the first person who ever gave me podfic feedback and that's a pretty cool thing to have done, I think. Thank you for everything you do!

[shmaylor]

pod_together was my first ever collaboration and first challenge and first foray into connecting with the podfic community as a whole. And it was such an amazing experience because of how well you run it. Getting to record multi-voice with you at Podfication and Chillfest was so much fun. You put so much care and enthusiasm into recording. And Think Once, Think Twice is still my favorite ever Brooklyn 99 podfic. You created something fabulous with that fic!

[adistantsun]

You are one of the pillars of the podfic community, without a doubt. Your thoughts on what podfic is, should, and could be have shaped many of the ways we do things, from pod-together through to the podfic comment tool-kit, that I still mentally flick through whenever I go to leave a comment. Suffice to say, the podfic community wouldn't be what is today without you. Thank you so, so much ♥

[kalakirya]

you are the reason so much of the podfic community exists <3

[dr_fumbles_mcstupid]

I absolutely loved theatripod both times i did it and you are such an awesome mod for running it! I also really enjoyed podfidic!

[intransitive]

Your Podfication panels were so great! I really enjoyed the in-person love fest especially - getting to listen to specific things and then get to share with people what I loved about it (and them) was so great. You're a great mod and a crucial part of podfic fandom <3

[caeliste]

I love your Ghostbusters and B99 podfics! Also, as somebody taking baby steps into podficcing and slowly de-lurking, I really appreciate how you create such a warm, open, and welcoming space as a mod. I was super intimidated by the idea of joining in something like Awesome Ladies, but everything about the process made it easier to try it out, and I'm so glad I did. Thank you for all of the ways that you hold space and help make podficcing community!

[rscreighton]

I probably wouldn't be as involved in the community if I hadn't signed up for pod_together for the first time like four years ago. The fact that you co-run something that helped me jump into this community is just AMAZING!!! <3 <3 <3 HAVE ALL MY LOVE FOR BEING AWESOME!!!!
