Another KISSES Fest has come and gone at [community profile] audiofemme. We had a good turnout this year - I haven't had a chance to listen to any of the other Makeouts yet, but I really enjoyed working on the Peck on the Lips compilation, and was really impressed with everyone's contributions. Also, [personal profile] yue_ix did a fantastic job with the cover art. Everyone's been talking about it, and rightly so.

I know I'm biased because I'm both a co-mod and a contributor, but I highly recommend checking out the fest. You can find all the Pecks (and the cover art!) here, and the Makeouts are posted directly to [community profile] audiofemme.

This year I recorded four Pecks and one Makeout. Streaming is available through the mp3 links for all of them. Here they are:

Reader's Note: I originally asked permission to record this fic over a year ago. Maybe even a year and a half? I remember thinking I was behind in recording it when I first started to work on it for KISSES Fest last year. I failed out about halfway through the recording, through absolutely no fault of the fic's, and started over from scratch this year. I'm really glad I finally finished it. I love this story to pieces. <3

Thanks again to all the authors for giving me permission to podfic their work! If you enjoy these podfics, please do leave feedback for the authors.

And thanks as well to [livejournal.com profile] cantarina1 for being such a lovely co-mod! <333

Happy International Day of Femslash, everyone! KISSES Fest 3 is up and running at [community profile] audiofemme. A Peck on the Lips 3 has been posted, and the Makeout Sessions are rolling in. It's not too late to participate - posting is open all day today.
(If you just can't make it today, keep in mind that we'd much rather you post your f/f podfic late than not post it at all. :D )
nickelmountain: (headphones on the train)
If you're into podfic and femslash and you haven't already checked out KISSES Fest at [community profile] audiofemme, I highly recommend heading over there. Okay, so, as one of the mods I might be sort of biased about this, but...between the <5 minute A Peck on the Lips compilation and the >5 minute Makeout Sessions, there is a seriously excellent selection of f/f podfic at the comm. 

I'm still working on my submission for Makeout Sessions (I know, I'm super late - I got seriously podblocked by the heat), but I did manage to finish 5 short podfics for A Peck on the Lips. I recommend listening to the entire compilation, but if you're interested, my contributions are listed below.

Troi and I

Jul. 7th, 2011 02:04 pm
nickelmountain: (Troi)
 I just finished recording a short Troi/Selar podfic for A Peck on the Lips at [livejournal.com profile] podfic_project , and it's got me to thinking about Deanna Troi.

Granted, it doesn't take much to get me thinking about Star Trek. Star Trek is arguably my first fandom - my mother collected the Original Series line of authorized books, and I read most of them by the time I was 10. We watched all the movies as a family, I saw random episodes of TOS here and there (this was on an army base in Germany - AFN was the only English language station available, so there wasn't a lot of syndicated programming), and we watched TNG religiously. Wil Wheaton was my first celebrity crush. I was all about teh Wesley.

So, Deanna Troi. I've always had a hard time with her. She's had an undeniable influence on me - I am not training to be a therapist because of Deanna Troi, but I also can't pretend she's not a factor - but she's also always made me uncomfortable.

long post is long... )

that's a tight present
