Halfamoon podfic project proposal

[podklb.livejournal.com]

halfamoon, which is a wonderful two-week celebration of female characters in fandom, has just started. I wanted to contribute something podfic-related to it, and then I found this Awesome Ladies Ficathon (searchable via this delicious) full of little ficlets centered around female characters across many fandoms. And now I have the idea in my head that I want to get a bunch of podfic artists to record ficlets from this ficathon that speak to them, and then collect everything together and post them as an Awesome Ladies Anthology on Feb 13th or 14th. We would also make them available as individual downloads, for people who didn't want the whole anthology.

It's short notice, but they're short ficlets, and I think the end product could be a really lovely way for the podfic world to add to the halfamoon celebration.

(Plus, for those people doing podfic_bingo, it could be a good quick way to take care of a bingo square :D)

So, does anyone want to play?

ETA: The project is going really well. There are over 40 ficlets being worked on by various readers, and the end result is going to be amazing. Anybody who would like to join in, for as few or as many stories as you like, let me know and I will PM you the link to spreadsheet where we're keeping track of who is recording what. The more voices, the better, so feel free to jump in at any time. Yay halfamoon!

ETA2: You can also look through the ficlets on the RPF-only spinoff of the ficathon using this delicious.

So, logistics. Either comment here or PM me with a list of any ficlets you want to do. You can update the list throughout the week, but let me know the ones you decide on as you decide on them so that I can make sure two people don't unintentionally do the same story (though if people want to intentionally multipod something, that'd be awesome).

Author permission will be up to the individual podfic artists to get, so try to contact the authors early, in case they take a few days to respond, since we're on a pretty tight schedule.

Then PM or email me links to mp3 versions of each podficlet as you complete it. Deadline for sending them in will be Feb. 12th midnight, so I can get everything put together to post on the 13th.
