Welcome to the Amplirecathon, a podfic recs fest! All podfic enthusiasts are welcome and encouraged to sign up.

Here's how it's going to work:

The festival will last 2 weeks, beginning Jan 18 and ending Feb 1, so grab a prompt (or make up your own, or, you know, decide to go prompt-free) and tell us the day(s) on which you plan to make your rec post(s).

Your post can be for one podfic, or for a group of podfics you've chosen to fit a theme (or, what the hell, you could rec a reader if you wanted, but you might want to call out a best example of their work) to be posted on the date you claimed during sign up. You can choose as many or as few days as you like, but we do ask that you don't claim 'em if you aren't going to use 'em.

We'd really love to hear the why, or your review of the recording, or your reaction, or the reason the reading resonates with you personally. But you needn't write an essay if that's not how you roll, so don't let that hold you back. Our goal is to point out the awesome, and to highlight things we think other people might want to give a listen. Qualified recs are awesome, but they should still be things you are recommending. :)


Prompts! An incomplete list for your inspiration:

Freeform (Make Up Your Own!)

Tiny Gems: Great Podfic Under Five Minutes
The Long Haul: Great Long Stories that are Worth Every Second

Leave a comment to this post to claim date(s). We'll update the post to show dates claimed. Please try to pick dates that haven't already been claimed so we have a more even spread for the festival!

Edit: Hooray, we have someone signed up for every date on the Livejournal sign-up post and are filling days up on Dreamwidth!

We would love to have several posts every day if we can get them, so please feel free to request an already-claimed date.

We'd also like to mention that no matter where you've signed up, you can post your recs to either the LJ or DW community, and you can crosspost to both sites if you like!


Please spread the word! The more the merrier!

Can I take the 22nd? I have a couple of ideas for themed lists though I'm not sure which I'll go for yet.

Heh, good plan! Actually, my lists work well together, so can I take the 22nd twice and post them both then since nobody else has asked for that date yet? Or would you prefer them spread out?

That's great, thanks! I'm having way too much fun putting the rec lists together here :)

Hi, I'm new to this comm, but have recently fallen hard for podfic. Could I do a post on the 29th? Not sure what the theme would be yet. Need a couple days to poke through my podfic-stash.

Got here late, sorry! If it's truly okay to double up, may I ask for the 29th?

Thanks! If not, I'll wait for the next chance.

Quick question: when you suggest prompts, does that mean, we have to do ALL of them? I kinda assumed we'd pick one category....

OK, reading through your response to flufflyllama, I guess my initial assumption was correct. Just...seeing today's post freaked me just a tad :)

I have waffled and waffled about doing this, partly due to the fact that my return home was delayed by a snow storm. However, I'm home now and since I've been mentally thinking of podfics to rec, I thought I'd sign up for Feb 1.

Yes, procrastination is my middle name.
