Or maybe not so dulcet, after all.

I am so far behind on my flist, I couln't see it from space. Ah well, if anything too important happens, I hope I'll find out somehow. At least I've been doing something useful, from a fannish perspective. I've been making podslash files.

It's so fun! My earliest efforts are sucking a bit, true, but I'm getting a little better. I'm trying to record one short piece and one portion of a longer story every day, and my collection of personal podslash is growing. I wish it was at the point where I thought it worth sharing my efforts, but then, I'd definitely need to get the permission of the writers first, whereas I don't feel the need with stuff I'm not planning on sharing. I'm not trying for accents or funny voices or whatnot, just clear reading of the text.

If anyone has any suggestions on technique, they'd be valued. Also, if anyone longs for a particular story in audio, get the permission of the author, prepare yourself for a very amateur effort, and I'll give it a go.

In between workworkwork, tending the lovefires of the SO, and my little audio endeavors, I've been listening to Fingersmith on CD. I'm so nuts over Sarah Waters, because she plays with perspective in such a nice, plotty way. Good original femmeslash, is how I"d describe this one. Lovely. (And the reader's skill makes me aware of what a long slope I've yet to climb, but also gives me an ideal to strive toward.)
