NOW WITH PODFIC ACCOMPANIMENT!

[arlohs-corner]

Hey ya’ll!

So, I had this idea to make this drawing for a while now, however I haven’t exactly gotten to it till a couple days ago.

Initially I was gonna start a different piece but I didn’t exactly like the direction it was going so I instead started and finished this one I did! I wanted to capture a scene from Episode 7 The Island, of Arthur and John Traversing the mist with a green lanturn. I included the background, Arthur, AND Arthur in general!

This was honestly a super fun piece to do and I hope you all enjoy it!!!

Sentences on Sunday!

I have two things I've been working on over the past week to share with you this fine Sunday!

First up - an excerpt from my Buddie fic about Famous Country singer Eddie and Firefighter Buck. This is a small part of the section bout Eddies childhood and how he became a country singer in the first place. Its very much in its draft form (sorry run on sentences I need to fix!) so it may not end up looking like this when I'm done with it, but thats a long way off as this fic is going to take a while to actually write because surprise, surprise it keeps getting longer!

But Eddie was never much good at holding things in for very long.  Oh he could bottle things up like the best of them, but it always ended up badly when he did. Building and building until it exploded out of him at importune moments.  So, when he got suspended from school for fighting with Luis Garcia after Luis had caught him staring at Noah Johnson in the locker room and had, in the way teenage boys do, proceeded to be a dick about it, he found himself on the receiving end of an angry lecture from his mom and sent to his bedroom with no dinner as his initial punishment until she had spoken with his father and they had decided what was to be done about him.  He had angrily sat on his bed, fuming over the injustice of being punished for defending himself against a bully, staring at the guitar propped up in the corner of his bedroom, remembering the words his Abuelo had often said to him;  ‘Music, Eddie, is always with you. It lives in you. Setting it free will help you make sense of the world and of yourself. It is your truth, never lose sight of that.’ He remembered those Sunday afternoons at on the porch. They were his favourite time of the week, the few hours when he felt like his true self and free of the expectations placed on him.  The guitar had stared back at him and he had found himself crossing the room, picking it up and sneaking out of his window onto the roof. Scrambling up the shingles until he was sat with his back to the chimney stack looking out over his neighbourhood, he began to strum. Rusty fingers fumbling with chords he only half remembered.

And the second thing I have to share - a picture - I'm currently mid editing my submission for the podfic fest coming up in October! I've been having a blast giving podficing a go and I hope you'll all enjoy listening to me reading one of my most favourite Buddie fics when its time to share it (even if I'm convinced everyone will hate my voice and how I've read the fic!!)!!

Tagging the following and anyone else who has something to share! @spotsandsocks @exhuastedpigeon @daffi-990 @honestlydarkprincess @princessfbi

I made an animation for "Fragile Life in Llyn Tegid, Alex Horne PhD" - my Taskmaster merman AU fanfic. Please note the bubble 🤍heart🤍 and the mer-creature reaching out for the little boat. All hand drawn! (There's also a podfic version with sound effects!)

Teen rated, M/M, 6.6k words, set in the seventies.

Marine Biologist Alex has been studying Llyn Tegid - the largest lake in Wales - and its fragile, delicate ecosystem. Desperate to protect its last remaining, unique, endangered species, he takes on illegal fishing operations single-handedly amidst a terrible storm - and comes to a terrible end. Then the marine biology finds him.

Hey all, so, I decided to do a trial run of a podfic with voice acting for the first chapter of this fic. I took quite a bit of time and even if there no desire to see any more for the rest of the chapters, any /all interaction with it would really make my heart sing, so please consider checking it out!

[sweatersinthesummer]

All 25 chapters, all 21 hours, 53 minutes, and 44 seconds of it are now posted on ao3.

Chapters 24 and 25 were posted together and I put a complete podbook in Chapter 1.

If Looks Could Kill, Then You’d Do Better Than A Shotgun Shell

Concussed Dazai, and Chuuya (begrudgingly) grounding him ✨

[gilraina]

Sometimes when I browse the podfic tag I see posts like "I'd like to start making podfics, tell me what stories you'd like to see me podfic" and there's just something so weird about this to me? Imagine someone saying "I wanna get into making fanart, tell me what I should draw first", or "I'd like to try writing fanfic, give me ideas for stories". I know it's not a 1 to 1 comparison (and maybe it even happens sometimes, I dunno), but it just feels like such a backwards approach?

I started podficcing because I was reading a lot of fanfic and had so many fics I loved and wanted to try recording, either because I had an idea for what I wanted them to sound like when read out loud, or just wanted to experiment. Over the years I've had to tell multiple people that I don't take requests, or even commissions, because my to-pod list is already long and keeps expanding. Finding a good story, and reaching out to the author to get permission to record it, is all part of the process to me.

I don't know, maybe it just comes down to people being new to podfic and not fully understanding that part of fandom and its etiquette, but even so, my question is: if you don't know what stories you'd like to podfic, or it doesn't make a difference to you, to the point where your first instinct is to ask random strangers what they'd like you to record rather than to pick something yourself, then why would you even want to do it in the first place? Contrary to what some may believe, making a podfic is actually a lot of work (especially when you're new to it), and personally I just can't imagine putting all that work into something I'm not passionate about. And if you haven't even made a single podfic before, then how can anyone even give you a good suggestion, when they don't know yet what kinds of stories you gravitate towards, what would be the best match for your narration style, etc.?

Also, from the fic writers' perspective, I imagine there's a world of difference between

a) reaching out to the author for permission to podfic their fic, because you loved it so much that it inspired you to create something based on it

and

b) putting out a general "send me fics and (maybe) I'll record them" statement

One of those will get you a much more enthusiastic response from the writers than the other. Not to even mention that there are plenty of writers who have already given blanket permission for their fic to be podficced, and would love to get a surprise podfic of their story. If you're a podficcer or want to get into podficcing, I can't recommend using the Blanket Permission Highlighter extension enough. It highlights the names of AO3 authors who have given blanket permission for their works to be transformed, and allows you to filter the archive to only show works from authors who have BP statements.

If you'd like to try podficcing, but feel anxious about reaching out to authors to ask for permission, choosing a fic from an author who's already given that permission is a great place to start! Much better than announcing that you want to make podfics and waiting for people to reach out to you, I promise!

Welcome back - for the third time!

First, the obvious - Poly Podweek is coming back for another year! This time with a fresh futuristic look 😎

And in the spirit of the new look, there's once again been a couple of changes.

Unfortunately we're starting this announcement with some regrettable news.

After careful consideration it's been decided that Poly Podweek will slowly begin moving away from twitter. Reasons for that are many, from fandom in general migrating elsewhere to the platform's growing inaccessibility, it's quickly becoming clear twitter is hardly the best place to reach people anymore. For at least one more year the account will still be used to deliver bigger news, but everything else will be moved entirely to tumblr and AO3. Hopefully the impact of this decision will be minimal, still, apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Now for some better news! According to the polls conducted after the end of this year's event, the addition of treats has been overwhelmingly well received, which is reason enough to keep them around 😄 Thank you to everyone who voted, hope you keep enjoying treats in next year's fest as well. As always, if you have any suggestions on how to improve the current way treats are run, they'd be most welcome C:

That's it for now! It's still a bit early to say anything for certain, but so far it looks like everything else will be staying much the same as previous year. You can find the FAQ & Rules in their entirety at our tumblr, AO3 or carrd.

Till next time!
