Late but enthusiastic : Intemperance

[jesse_the_k]

I've just finished my first listen, and I know there will be many more.

Your narration is particularly excellent here: you perfectly capture the ironic distance required for such an engrossing & mysterious story.

It's also technically shiny. My previous listen was NPR and you needed no adjustments to volume or EQ.

I'm locking this file to prevent accidental deletion, since I anticipate rereading in my dotage.

Oh, thank you! ♥ What a lovely self-esteem boost--I asked someone I don't know to beta that fic I wrote, and I am convinced they think it sucks, and that is why they haven't replied yet. You know, that valley of suckitude after the hill of elation that comes with writing something. Ah well, we will see.

Anyway, maybe I should re-listen to some of my own podfic--enough time as has passed that I will have forgotten it, and maybe it'll inspire me to record something again.

Glad to drop some truth in your life.

That valley of suckitude was more likely a tsunami of Stuff, then they got busy, and then they were too embarrassed to say they'd forgotten to listen and therefore had nothing to contribute.

Your podfic oeuvre is so impressive.

I bet you have a thousand candidates. You'd do a great job with Basingstoke's BBC bookend to Intemperate,

B's summary: In which John learns to balance a kinky girlfriend, an asexual boyfriend, a ten-inch cock, his sister, the neighbours, his friends, and his blog. Some are more balanced than others.

Ha ha, it's only been a little more than ONE DAY since I sent them the fic to beta-read, so I really have no actual reason to worry yet.

Indecorous is in my to-read folder, but I never got around to it. I'm not that likely to record fic set in modern-day Britain--there's something about modern British accents that are hard for me. Not that I actually do old-fashioned British accents either, but I still feel that style is much easier.

Ha. One day definitely doesn't fit my scenario

I didn't hear British accents so much as appropriate variation in the prosody so as to create distinctive audio characters. Which is why you are, without doubt, such a talented pofficcer.
