Looking forward to listening to these! I noticed that the file for "Super Secret Adventures of an Investigative Reporter (So not all that Secret)" only came out to 4 KB and wanted to check with you to see if the problem was on my end or not. Figured out the problem! Your link reads "SuperSecretAdventuresIntrepidReporter2.mp3" but I think the actual file is "SuperSecretAdventuresIntrepidReporter.mp3" which I was able to obtain by typing directly into the address bar.

Hmmm, and I thought I checked all the links. Good catch and I've fixed above.

Coming back after I've listened to them, and I just want to say that I really like your reading style! Your voice is incredibly expressive and equally adept at portraying the moments of wry humor (especially in "Darkness on the Deep") as moments of emotional intensity.

What struck me is how well your writing style is suited for podfic; it's all very aural and rhythmic, especially what you do with the sentence fragments. If ever there was fic that was meant to be read out loud! Thanks for recording these!

[fresne]

Thank you! As I write, I tend to think about how the words sound, so it was definitely fun poding the fic. Mind you, I was surprised at what a tongue twister, "Wonder Woman wore a rust red chiton" turned out to be.

Downloading "Goddess and the City," thank you!

Just wanted to say that having listened to "Goddess and the City," I really, really enjoyed it. I loved the story when I first read it, and it was so gorgeous and perfect for the poetic cadences you used. Really lovely work all around! ♥

Thank you! Excellent with the voice in your head (first reading) got to meet up with the voice in my head (being my voice) for the reading/hearing of this.

"Goddess and the City" is great! The use of SFX is super effective at setting the tone. Unless it was actually raining? Either way, it grounds the story in a really lovely way, gives it all kinds of new depth. It really makes it! Thanks for sharing :)

I just realized that I never answered your awesome comment. Thank you. The rain is SFX. Once I picked the music, it just seemed right. I'm glad it worked the way I hoped it would.
