Supernatural fic podcast?

[hope]

Okay, so groaty got me thinking: Supernatural fic, aloud.

This is not a new thought for me (as those who've been around for a few years will know), nor for fandom in general. There are a bunch of fandoms that have people who record audio tracks of stories, be it their own or someone else's.

So. What would you say to a Supernatural fanfic podcast? You could record yourself reading your story, or someone else's story, aloud, and I could work my editing mojo and put them together in one big 'cast (well, about half-an-hour 'cast). Or bundle them as individual stories. Or something. There could be a slash edition and a gen edition. Maybe once a week or fortnight.

Whaddaya think?

That would be MAJORLY awesome.

Especially the idea of Sam and Dean's fancrackified dialogue being read out by a bunch of assorted fangirls. Think of the possibilities, oh the possibilities!

Yakfucker fics in glorious surround sound. My nipples, they tingle in delight.

[hope]

bwhahah!

would you record some tracks, d'you think?

I absolutely love the idea, but I bet people would just laugh at me when I read my stories with an accent - actually, I don't know how I'd sound, I guess people couldn't listen to the content of the story, they'd be much too interested in finding out where the hell I come from: I've heard Australia, I've heard South Africa, etc.. etc..

[hope]

hah! I was thinking the same kinda thing... I mean, for such an American show, wouldn't it be weird to have an Australian accent reading these characters/landscapes?

On the one hand I think it would be weird. On the other, in my experience people from the US have tended to find the Aussie accent terribly exotic o.O

So, you never know.

But it's not like I'd be reading my own stories anyway, I'm way too shy for that. I'd read other people's.

Oh! Oh, yes! Yes, yes, yes!

[hope]

I love this idea, it brings a new depth to the fandom that would be very ineteresting. I hope it works out. :D

(I'm a lurker, by the way. I love all the work you're doing for the fandom. :) )

[hope]

Hullo, lurker!

I hope it works out too. Thanks for the input :)

I think it's an interesting idea. It's along the lines of the upswing in audiobooks because people don't have time to read, but they can listen.

I've a ton of fic on my HD, and I'm not going to read most of it this side of christmas. But I often listen to radio podcasts when I work, so, I'd d/l it

[hope]

Not just audiobooks, but podcasts! they're all the rage now, apparently.

as you said, to listen to while working, commuting, sleeping, etc... hee :)

that would be an AWESOME thing. because there are fics I'd totally re-read....if i didnt already have NEW fics to read. but if i had the audio files? i could listen to them as i fell asleep! \

and then the dreams that would most likely ensue with that playing in my sleep? Theyd be glorious.

[hope]

Exactly! Now, to get this show on the road (and hope that everyone else comes along for the ride!)

Oh I would totally be interested in SPN fic podcasts! Hell, I might even be willing to help with a few here and there maybe.
