[SPN Podfic] Not In Kansas Anymore

[ratherastory]

So by way of procrastinating on my Dean/Castiel Big Bang, I decided to do something nerve-wracking. I'm testing my boundaries, or having a mid-fandom crisis, I dunno. Anyway, back in the day when nwhepcat wrote Not In Kansas Anymore I thought it would be really awesome if someone did a podfic of it. And then sometime last week she posted giving people

Thank you SO MUCH!

You rock. :)

LOL! You go girl! I've thought about doing podfic, but I don't think I could deal with the swear words. I can read them and it's no problem, but it's MUCH harder hearing them, and SAYING them is worse. I know, it's bad.

[ratherastory]

There are lots of fics out there without swearing. (There were a few uses of the f-word in the one I read, but not that many, and I agree that I found it jarring to read them aloud)

I think I forgot to congratulate you on your CD. When's it coming out for public consumption?

(Also, if I could, I would totally bribe you for podfic.)

Hee! I go in and re-record parts of it tonight, and do the final editing. After THAT, Cyrus goes in to master everything, and even out the sound. Once I have the master, which should be this week, I get it duplicated and the cd cover printed and all put together with shrink wrapping and everything. CD baby is going to distribute my CD online, and I have to figure out how to market the thing!

I'll think about the podfic. It would be a LOT of fun.

[ratherastory]

YAY!

On both counts!

Please please PLEASE think about the podfic! I know quite a few storytellers IRL, and I know it would be extra-awesome for someone who's an actual performer to read fanfic online. :D

I will happily write you a fic to the prompt of your choice, if you'd like! :)

Thank you! :D It's my first podfic and, like everything else to do with fandom, I am feeling unaccountably and unreasonably anxious about the whole thing, so it's good to hear that it's being well-received.

I am using a MacBook, and the software that came with it, Garage Band. You can hear the cooling fan in the background, but unfortunately there's not much I can do about that (someone on my flist has since told me using frozen peas is a good trick, so I'll try that next time).

[ratherastory]

Oh, man, I spent SO much time trying to get the mixing to work. I feel your pain.

I wouldn't even know how to start compressing. I am not quite computer-illiterate, but I really don't know that much about stuff outside of word processing and basic html. ;)

I hope you and your husband will like the rest!

Yay podfic! I'm stealing this now and I'll listen to it on my way to work. I can't wait!

Thanks! I hope you like it!

eeek i wanna listen and hear your voice! unfortunately I don't have enough memory on my computer to download anything *wince* but when I unpack my harddrive you bet i will.

[ratherastory]

YAY! I am excited that you are excited! \o/

No worries, it's not like there's a timetable on this. ;)
