PODFIC BIG BANG: Betas and Covers and Soundtracks, OH MY!

[bessyboo]

So, I did pretty much everything for the first round of podficbigbang EXCEPT submit an actual podfic. And anyone who has paid attention to any of the comment threads between reena_jenkins and myself over the last, oh, TWO MONTHS has probably been privy to at least a part of what we've been up to.

My "official" roles were as follows:

• Cover artist for "How Not to Fly" (+

So cool! I love the thoughts behind the casting, thanks for writing them out! I have my own very clear images of what the kids look like, of course, but they're not based on any RL kids/actors so I couldn't begin to cast them myself either. I did have to laugh at bb!PJ being Cody from Dexter, though, because I wrote HNTF thinking a little of Astor and Cody being around the same ages for the more recent seasons of Dexter (and having lost both parents too, though hopefully neither John nor Rodney is quite a serial killer psychopath).

(Incidentally, I had a bit of inspiration for later!Nora and later!PJ from United States of Tara, another show with the same sibling pairing, this time with the hot slightly weird older sister and the gay younger brother being the strongest parallels.)

In short: love them! Are you on AO3? You should post the covers and we can link them up there!

Hah, that is some awesome coincidence right there with the casting of PJ! Great minds think alike? Or possibly just the fandom hive brain? (And at your comment, now I'm just thinking of that fic "John" where John basically IS Dexter XD)

(I have never see that show, although I know of it, but I just wiki'd it, and between that and what you've said, now I kind of want to! DAMMIT, I DO NOT NEED MORE TV SHOWS!!! *facepalm*)

I...did not realize you could post art on AO3? Can you? I am bessyboo there as well, but I thought you could only post writing...?

[toomuchplor]

You can now! I think it's a fairly recent change though. Anyway I only know because xenakis just posted a cover for a fic of mine and we were able to link them up there through something she did. It was magical and stuff.

[bessyboo]

Do you remember which fic of yours she posted it for? Because I have searched and SEARCHED, and I cannot for the LIFE of me find this supposed art-uploading feature >.>

[toomuchplor]

Hrm, I think maybe she uploaded it into the text part of the work, by linking to the image there. Here's the work: http://archiveofourown.org/works/196221.

Ahhh, that makes much more sense. In that case, DONE! :D

(Also, LJ totally spam-filtered your comment because of the external link. It took me a while to figure out WHERE THE COMMENT WAS, WTF. *facepalm*)

[toomuchplor]

Yay! So pretty. I love them every time I see them!

[bessyboo]

*dances* YAY! Thanks for the kudos ^^
