Absolutely fabulous reading! Your diction was so crystal clear that I could listen to it all day. Your character voices were superbly done, except that I kept wanting to switch Remus and Sirius, but that is from my own perceptions of their characters. The sneeze every time it came up was well done, and just all the different nuances of emotion made this fic a joy to listen to. Many kudos!
To the cover artist, nice job with the images. I love the use of the red in the bottom half.
Wow, thank you so much, for this and the rec on amplificathon! I'm just so happy that people are enjoying this podfic as much I enjoyed putting it together ###^____^###
I kept wanting to switch Remus and Sirius
We all have our different ideas on how characters sound, but these two in particular I can definitely see where you're coming from - there's so many ways one can interpret them and how they might speak. When I first started reading R/S fic, I did have a bit of a crisis of confidence with their voices, Sirius' especially: "Sirius is wizarding elite, and you make him sound like he grew up on a south Sydney beach, what the hell?! *chews off another fingernail*". But for all his royal upbringing, he tends to speak in an earthy and colloquial way in most fics, and for me, that parses straights into the laidback, salt of the earth Australian I grew up with.
(and one could make the argument that he's shed his plum-in-the-mouth pronunciation as another means of disavowing his family ;D)
sneezeOh man, those sneezes! You don't want
