Hi, all! It's been a very, very, very long time, hasn't it? I really have to get the hang of posting regularly, even if it's just to say hi
( Read more... )
I can only agree with the above- there's rarely a time when a chapter of one of Nat's fics read by you isn't on my iPod- I hardly ever read before bed now, I listen to podfic! Don't worry about the wait, I'd wait ages for your podfics because they're amazing :) Look forward to listening to the next one (I'm currently on chapter 10 on my iPod for the who-knows-how-many-th time!) Yay for Draco POV (appropriate icon, check) but you're right about it being impossible to choose a favourite Nat!fic! x
Thank you so much for the wonderful comment - and doubly so since I've looked back in my comments and realized that I never responded to one you sent way long ago (40 weeks! omg embarrassing!).
I'm so glad that you enjoy the fics enough to listen multiple times. I'm totally the same way about relistening to my favourites, especially anything by Raitala. I'm slightly embarrassed to admit that I've listened to my own recordings more than once. Does that make me a narcissist? But podfics are just such a fabulous way to read stories I love while getting other things accomplished at the same time (dog-walking, painting, cleaning, driving, having my teeth drilled.) I have no idea how I coped with life before I found audiofic.
After I finish catching up on comments, I'm going to post the link to Detestable Logic (it's already posted on my 4shared site if you have the link to my FoundationsVerse folder).
It's definitely not narcissistic- I've heard other podficcers say the same, and besides, it would be awful if you couldn't enjoy Nat's fics in that way after putting in all your hard work when the rest of your listeners get so much enjoyment out of them :)
Listened to Detestable Logic last night and loved it :) Have you stared recording somewhere different on the last two? It sounds like a different room- just an observation lol. Looking forward to Festive Fundamentals :)
Actually, it's a both different room and a different mike. I think the mike is the more significant difference. My old one was a headset kind of thing, which was the source of all sorts of odd little clicking and tapping sounds. This one is on a little tripod thing and has a little screen thing to filter those pops and fizzes. I'm sure the 'things' all have correct technical terms, but I can't quite be bothered to learn them.
And I am having a fantastic week, thank you! It is doubly fantastic since I have the next two days off.
I tried recording Festive Fundamentals last night but when I listened to it, I sounded like I'd taken a sedative. Pacing was soooo sloooow. Also, I seemed to have a mumbling problem. I started to do some editing but came to the conclusion that it would be better overall if I redid it when I was a bit more peppy and less mush-mouthed.
Hope you enjoyed your days off and that you're having more luck with Festive Fundamentals :) I am weirdly fond of the idea of this tripod microphone, I don't know why but tripods amuse me :/ Loved The Significance of DM and am looking forward to the next one (no pressure! I hope it doesn't give you too much hassle and that your mouth is no longer... mushy?!) :P x
Now I'm giggling about my mushy mouth. I do seem to have recovered from the mush (at least I think so!). The fic is recorded and off to beta. I was actually wondering if it would make more sense to hold off on posting this one until closer to Christmas (given the theme). It seemed quite weird to be recording a Christmas fic during a heat wave (30plus Celsius - not sure what that is in Fahrenheit

I may give it another shot tonight...
