Well done. This is really satisfying and you've done justice to the "deal with the devil" genre!!

Thanks! It wasn't the second time The Devil Went Down To Georgia, but it was close enough. Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks! I pretty grew up with that voice. My folks are actually (act-shly!) from Memphis, Tennessee, but a great deal of our family is in Alabama and Mississippi, as well. I grew up in Florida, myself, where it's not quite as bad, but having the family I do, "ain't no way I were gonna escape it!"

I love the way you used the topic. I also admire the consistency of his voice and dialect throughout the piece. That had to be hard to maintain.

Thanks! I wasn't as hard as you might think... I know that voice better than I'd care to admit. Did you get the chance to check out the voice post link? You can HEAR it HERE.

this was really fun. i love the voice - kind of matter-of-fact and nicely self-aware, and with a dry sense of humor. i really like the voice post, too. it sounds just like someone being interviewed.

Thanks! I was hoping it sounded more like someone telling a story than being interviewed, but I suppose it could sound like one of those reality TV after the fact crime and punishment story documentary kinda interviews. I'm glad you enjoyed it. ;)
