Yay!! Our very first following_Sea podfic! Well done :D Great that the voice memo app thingy worked.

Your American voice is lovely and you've read this beautifully. I particularly like the intonation (and implication? invitation? ;) of the last line. That makes me all kind of melty :}

Thank you!

I always hate my recorded voice (doesn't everyone?) so I'm glad you liked it.

And so glad the last line came across the way I wanted it to! That... was kind of the point. (See what happens when you get the boys behind a door that locks?)

It's lovely! Of course I liked it :) And yes I think everyone hates hearing their own voice. I just sound bloody weird!

Ahem yes, I think you got the point across admirably *cough*

You've got a fantastic reading voice. :)

I'm scared to put mine up now.

Thank you!

And don't be scared! Everything that's good about this can probably be traced to me listening to ellen_kushner's performance for the audiobook of her novel Swordspoint. Which is my favorite novel in the world, and she's got YEARS of experience as a radio host, and Richard and Alec are just as fascinating a couple as Horatio and Archie... so I just sort of tried to pretend to be her.

I should have gotten my teenager to do it. My kid's got theater training and could probably have mimicked both Ioan and Jamie.

I have recorded two that I am sort of ok with. but cannot figure out how to post them. I did succeed in Mailing one to Anteros a while back, but I am shamed to say I can't even remember how I did that!

Right now they areon my desktop, looking forlorn!

I used megaupload - you might have to create an account, but after that it was pretty easy.

Awww, don't be forlorn! If you're stuck just send the second one to me and I'll post them both for you :)

Don't know what is wrong, cannot seem to link to listen. I think podcasts are determined to foil me!

I forgot to make the link clickable - did you try copying it and pasting it into a browser? (I know, terribly obvious, but there you are.)

Or I could just send you the mp3 file if you like.

I did try copy and paste. But LJ has been persnickety lately. Maybe later it will work.

Or you could send the file-- if you want.
