Know what'd be super awesome? A rec list of podficcers that do it right ♥


sorry sorry. For the most part km stoked that you found another way to get through a fic rather than dropping it. I don't even know why it makes me happy other than giving validation to the idea that audio fic is definitely useful.

Seconded! We should start a group here on DW and get people to add names. I'm so sick of trying to listen to fics only to find readers with distractingly bad microphone quality, or stilted styles, or who don't bother doing the characters' voices. I've found a few fics on YouTube that are absolutely AMAZING (some of which even go the extra mile and not only add music, but sound effects too!) but it really is hit or miss - more misses than hits, too. :(

as someone who listens to a lot of things on audio, I prefer a story where someone isn't doing voices to one where they're done shitty. voices are really really hard to do right.

so I actually prefer podfic to reading (and I also learn better through listening) so take this with a grain of salt: I haven't ever minded an accent (except for german. sorry tinypinkmouse, I have no idea what you're saying!) and my bar for sound quality is: is there any distracting background sound?

this is lifted off recently played list on my current mp3 player full of podfic. there's much more out there in fandoms I'm not a part of -- there's a truly disgustingly massive tonne of stargate fic.

fayjay (not only awesome but prolific)
knight_tracer
dodificus
superstituousme (I listened to the epic-length A Kept Boy)
luzula (generation kill)
chemm80 (generation kill)
rhea314 (she recorded the epic-length ADSverse for Lois Bujold's universe. it's big enough that the story can be considered a universe of its own: read/listen to it without fandom context you'll still enough.)

shout of to the newest recording of 16 Days in September a generation kill podfic on which five awesome podficcers collaborated on.

I can go on and on. I've been an avid listener of podfic for about 3 years now so if I took my time I could probably make sure a comprehensible list.



I hear people snark about podfic quality but I really don't get it -- I've heard bad sound quality maybe 5-10% of the time and only once was someone's accent literally incomprehensible to me. Maybe it's because I tend to stick to epic fic unless it's a favorite fandom?


I listen to a lot of audiobooks too and frankly I've found fandom podficcers are some of the most enjoyable and high quality narrators I've heard. No hyperbole. Some audiobook narrators can be aw-ful.

Seconding fayjay. She is THE reader that got me into podfic in the first place, and is still my favorite reader after all this time.

I adore podfic because it's a great way to get a dose of fandom in while I'm working on art projects. Hours and hours of entertainment that ensures I don't get distracted from my work.
