The FYE in my mall is closed and I have no idea when that happened. I'm bummed out about it because I probably missed awesome closing sales. Oh well. My hunt for season 2 of Chuck under $30 continues.

I FINALLY did those last two audiofics I owed [livejournal.com profile] brighteyed_jill from [livejournal.com profile] hope_in_sight. One's a gen-ish Petrelli-centric Heroes fic and the other one is a smutty K/S Star Trek story. If either of those things interest you, go give them a listen and let me know if I'm getting worse at this audiofic thing because I think I'm losing my sense of pacing but I'm my own worst critic.

I'm considering pimping my audiofic skillz (such as they are) in White Collar fandom because, well, more audiofic is always a good thing, and there are some authors in that fandom I would bend over backwards for and "please let me read your story out loud" is about as close to outright worship as I can come. xD I don't know if there would be any interest in that... what do you say, WC friends? Audiofic: cool or lame?

Today was lovely. Tomorrow is supposed to be lovely too. All this nice weather is spoiling me. I'm going to be so heartbroken when it snows next week. All I want to do is plant these morning glory seeds that [livejournal.com profile] moorishflower gave me, but I have to wait... stupid late frosts, you're crimping my already weak gardening style.

I'm going to take a shower and go to bed at a reasonable time, I think.

I think audiofic is pretty awesome! I have a crazy long bus commute, and a good pair of noise-canceling headphones, so I would mostly be interested in audiofic that I can listen to without turning scarlet. :D But I would not be disinterested in the smutty kind, either.

So say I wanted to do one of YOUR stories as an audiofic... which one would you prefer to get the treatment? If you would want any of them at all, I mean.

That would be like SUPER EXCITING to me. God, this fandom keeps making me feel like Sally Field at the Oscars. YOU LIKE ME. <3

IDK... I think "Love Walked In" would be fun? But I don't know what length works best. Really any one you want would make me really happy.

Generally I'm good up to about 3500 words, that comes out to roughly 20 minutes of talking at once. I record all in one go so the volume level stays even, it's really noticeable when I shift the mic closer or farther away.

I am totally willing to push myself for 4500 words, though, because I adore "Love Walked In" so much that it just needs doing. ♥

So uh here it is and I hope it's okay, I really cannot make my sibilants any less hissy without sticking a pillow over the microphone but hopefully my snake impression doesn't detract from it too much! ♥

Audiofic would be totally cool! I don't think anyone's done any yet - I'd listen to it. :-)

Would you be open to letting me record one of your stories? And if so, which one would you most like to get the treatment? Assuming I can make it through one of them without going entirely breathless, cause your fic kind of does that to me more often than not. xD

Oh, hooray!!! \o/

Umumum. I think. Um. I actually have a soft spot in my heart for "Nightmares" (http://hoosierbitch.livejournal.com/5055.html). But feel free to do ANY of them (except the kink meme series - I want to wait until that one's finished, since I'll probably change it as I go)!

SO COOL. I'm glad my fics leave you breathless! *g*

Here it is! It gave me a little trouble in editing, so if there's something missing just let me know and I'll do it over again. Just because it sounds right on my end doesn't mean it'll turn out that way when everyone else hears it, sadly. xD

As someone who often has to do four hour road trips, I LOVE audiofic--there's only so many This American Life podcasts a girl can listen to before Ira Glass's voice starts to grate, and fanfiction is full of win in all it's forms. I AM IN FULL SUPPORT OF THIS PLAN.

Awesome! Now if I wanted to do one of your stories as audiofic, which one would you most like to hear?

IS THAT REALLY AN OPTION?!?!?!?

I mean, um. I am not hyperventilating with glee. Not at all. EXCEPT THAT I TOTALLY AM.

And, uh. Any of them? I suppose, if I had to like, pick, I'd go with Insomnia's Net Worth or Into the Fire, but honestly I'd be so flattered that you could literally audiofic my user info and I'd love you.

:DDD

Given that choice, I don't think it will surprise you that I did Into the Fire. (my love for Mozzie, it is all-encompassing.) I hope you like how it turned out, because I had a lot of fun doing it!

I LOVE YOU SO HARD RIGHT NOW.

But, um. I downloaded it immediately and listen to it because I am apparently an egomaniac and NO ONE HAS EVER DONE THIS FOR ME BEFORE and, um. It is the most glorious thing in the world but the version I downloaded cuts off mid-sentence at the beginning of part five? And gah I DON'T EVEN CARE BECAUSE THE REST IS SO AWESOME but I thought you'd want to know?

AHHHH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.

Oh, darn it! Audacity has been giving me trouble all day long but I thought I'd solved the problem before I saved your story. Let me check the wav file and see if I can track down where along the line of format-switching things borked up. I'm sorry it didn't come through whole!

APOLOGIZE FOR NOTHING, YOU ARE THE CAPTAIN OF THE USS TOTALLY BRILLIANT. I just wanted to let you know for posting it places and stuff :D THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN.

I fixed it! I should have realized something was wrong when it only came up seven minutes, but now it's the proper ten and a half minutes and you can pimp it around without it being all screwed up. :D ♥
