Podfic: The Asteroidea Trilogy, by Etothepii

[pandarus.livejournal.com]

In a burst of synchronicity, both Rhea314 and I wanted to podfic these fabulous Sherlock/His Dark Materials stories, so what we've done is BOTH of us have recorded them, to release into the wild simultaneously. (Hopefully. Notwithstanding the whacky time difference thing of one person being on East Coast North America time, and one being on Thailand time.) I &hearts these stories. SUCH a clever premise, and the way that things unfold is so ineluctable and satisfying, even though it's the last thing I would have thought I'd buy based on TV canon. Genuinely transformative work, this.

So, here are links to my versions:

Grateful thanks to Rhea for doing all the cut'n'pasting involved in making the composites, and to the lovely Cybel for her patience in archiving & making beautiful cover art!

I have thought off-and-on all day about how to express my sheer love for you two, and I'm still not sure I have all the words I want to say.

You two are amazing. I love you. I have been listening to your podficced versions, both the composite and separate readings, off and on in the background all day, and I am so happy and gleeful and thrilled! Under your voices, I feel like the text really comes alive, making everything sound so much more - more intense, more nuanced, more emotional, and it is beautiful and wonderful and I am so, so honored that you and Rhea both decided to read my fics aloud and make them enjoyable for others through another medium.

I'm delighted that you enjoyed them! I've been listening to it on and off for several days now. Really, the unexpected tenderness and tentativeness of it all undoes me. So much bless.

And have you seen this (http://snake-easing.livejournal.com/86908.html)? snake_easing has just posted a quite fabulous (if much briefer) foray into Sherlock/HDM, which is very different from your own, but thoroughly made of win, and clever clever clever.

God, isn't fandom grand?

Oh snap! I haven't, actually (I usually source my reading material from delicious), but I'm going to go read it now! :D Thanks for the link! <3
