Bright Moon, Who Goes Farther Still, by hossgal (Watership Down)

[luzula]

Title: Bright Moon, Who Goes Farther Still
Author: hossgal
Reader: luzula
Fandom: Watership Down gen
Rating: PG
Length: 1 h 37 m 15 s
Author's summary: Who is the teller, and who is the one whose tale is told?
The wind twists, turns into what it had once been;
Who is the foundling, and who is the seeker bold?
The rain flows down the hills and becomes the sea again.

Notes: This story interweaves one of the rabbits' traditional tales with Hyzenthlay's story in Efrafa before she escaped to Watership Down. I love the focus on the does, and I also love the oral storytelling structure--it's so much fun to read aloud. This is the first time I experiment with using sounds other than my own voice. These ones are recorded in the woods close to where I live, and are used only to mark transitions in the story (no speaking over sounds). Thanks to the author for letting me record it, and thanks to malnpudl for helpful beta-listening! This story was recorded as a birthday present for akamine_chan, who loves Watership Down as much as I do.

[exmanhater.livejournal.com]

Title: Cattle Rancher, Convenient Wife
Author: 1ightning
Reader: exmanhater
Fandom: Supernatural RPF
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
File size/type: 27.76 MB, .mp3
Length: 1:00:37
Author's Summary: Cattle rancher Jensen Ackles isn't looking for love-but he is looking for a wife. He wants a partner who will settle down with him in the Outback, a practical, down-to-earth woman who won't be seduced by the bright lights of the city. Hot ex-actor Jared Padalecki doesn't seem to fit Jensen's criteria at all. With his model looks he can't trust that Jared's growing attraction to him is for real. But that doesn't seem to stop Jensen thinking about him-every minute of every day! (written for spn_harlequin)

[paraka]

Title: Undercover by house_of_lantis
Reader: paraka
Fandom: American Idol Season 8 RPF
Pairing: Kris/Adam
Length: 2:17:28
Links: MP3 ||| M4B

Summary: Based on kradamadness Round 6 Games prompt by vampiric_mcd who asked for mobster/mafia AU + dangerous games. It took two years for undercover agent Kris to infiltrate Adam’s criminal organization, but it only took one day for everything to come crashing down.

Reader's Notes: Thank you to choosetolive for the beta and house_of_lantis and adamaddict_rh for the cheerleadering. :D

Since this is a fairly long podfic, I made plenty of mistakes as I was reading this (unsurprisingly). However some of them were kind of hilarious (Kris only has one cock tip!) and I talked about it on Twitter and people mentioned being interested in hearing them, so voi la! Bloopers:

The 'Five Things' Meme, As Written By Caitri

[reena_jenkins]

 So, early this year, caitri was running a meme over at her journal, and the seven stories that resulted from it have stuck in my brain ever since - to the point where, if I'm reading a fic and the author gives one of these seven characters a different backstory than what caitri wrote, I'm like, "What? No, that's not what happened..." and then I have to go and sit down for a while. So, in an effort to not be the only one who's had her head-canon messed with, I thought I'd share these mini-fics with you!


( Five Things About Bones )

( Five Things About Mal )

( Five Things About Richard Castle )

( Five Things About Willow )

( Five Things About Simon Tam )

( Five Things About Eomer )

( Five Things About Jim Kirk )

Grand Total: (13) + (13) + (13) + (13) + (15) + (15) + (13) = 95 points
