Podficcing has me by the baaaallllls right now, you guys. Don't get me wrong, I love it! It's just, I get fixated on one aspect of creativity and I hang out there for a while. I've joined at least one podficcing challenge in my frenzy to record ALL the fics. I'm learning so much! I love the learning as much as I love the doing :) You guys should try it, at least once. However, I do understand that a lot of people don't care for podfic, and that's ok, too.

Are there any of you who would offer me permission to rifle through your fics, and try to record one if it calls to me? That is, if you don't already offer blanket permission. But you could point that out if you want to, as well :) You guys know there are certain pairings and things I like, but I'm also interesting in trying new things. So anybody can leave me a comment, even if it just says "ok", and I may rummage through your bits and pieces ;D

Aaaand, if you want to make your fic available to anyone who wants to record it, you can go to this Blanket Permission List post at [livejournal.com profile] cakehole_club and leave a comment. That way you might one day be surprised by podfic in your inbox :D Some podficcing challenges are coming up as well, so podficcers will certainly be looking for a variety of material to work with.

I have a couple of podfics I have to edit, then post. (I wish I were actually good at graphic design! lol. I can draw, but when I try to make graphics, they're just kind of bleh.) Podficcing is just as, if not more, time consuming as art is, especially anything over ~2000 words. But it's really gratifying, because I eased into fandom by listening to podfic, and I listened to SO MUCH of it, and it makes me so happy to think that others are listening to my recordings, too :)

So yeah, if you like de podfics, there will be more. And if you don't care for them, or both, I'm gonna try to livestream either tomorrow or the next day to flex my drawing muscle so it doesn't atrophy, lol.

Title: It's been awhile.
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] badbastion
Pairing/Character: Sam/Castiel
Rating: PG
Contents: man being de-shirted by another man, face touching and emoting.
Spoilers: Sam wears plaid sometimes.
Summary: You may have already seen this; it was drawn specifically so that I could make an in-progress video for an Ask the Artist post--but it's not like I wouldn't have drawn it anyway ;) I'm including the in-progress video here, too, for purposes of full archiv...ation



ExpandIt's been awhile, hasn't it, Sam? )


Short fic to go along with the story here: that loneliness

*First off, the auction that [livejournal.com profile] fandomaid has put together as a fundraising campaign to help those who were affected by Superstorm Sandy is almost over; bidding ends Thursday, November 29th at 5 PM American EST/10 PM GMT. [livejournal.com profile] fandomaid's front page should have answers to any of your questions, and they have a post where you can ask questions, as well.

I have a thread up if you want to bid on an art from me. It is already much higher than I'd expected it to go, but it's for a good cause, so I'm really happy about it :)

*Continuing on: Have I missed anything? I've dumped stuff on tumblr and faved pretty things there, but haven't had time to really dig into my meatier f-page over here. Are there any posts that I need to see? Did you message or email me and I failed to respond? Did someone post something epic that my life would be incomplete without? lol, I am being kind of lazy with this, but I watch so many people and comms, there's no way I could catch up on my own.

(Still moving. Argh. Don't wanna talk about it, lol.)

*And then: People have been writing stories for my pictures. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that this happens. LOVE IT. I have absolutely no problem with multiple people writing their take on one piece; it's happened before, and I love seeing the different ways people go with the same image. I think it's really amazing. So if you have the urge to write for anything, please do! But if you would be uncomfortable knowing you may not be the only person writing for a pic, please keep that in mind.

Here's another thing that many of you may have already learned: my memory is HORRIBLE. Like, it takes me 15 minutes to get out the door because I keep forgetting things, and I can't remember if I've forgotten a thing, and I'll remember something I forgot halfway to the car, etc, lol. Names and agreements and obligations and emails and comments, I can totally forget. Now that I'm getting settled in, it'll be a little better, b/c I'll have my post-it notes once I find them, haha.

I think what I was saying was, if you've created something inspired my something I've done, you are FANTASTIC and I am really grateful. Aaaand it's likely that I don't have a link to it. So if you have, please leave the link here in the comments, because I do plan on making a post for these kinds of things. Thank youuuu!

Hope all of you had a good holiday weekend! :)

So I've been packing and looking online and asking around and driving around and talking to landlords and stressing the hell out, and... yesterday we signed the lease on an apartment. Yay!

We set up our utilities on Monday, and start moving in on Wednesday. So soon! Haha, I woke up at 2 am with the burning need to pack, but I'm about to go back to bed.

I'll be here lurking when I can, and maybe making an occasional post. the minibang post is coming up on Monday, and I've still got time to finish my reversebang and the j2-xmas sxchange. As long as I don't shirk or dally, haha. Drawing's relaxing though, so when i take breaks I'll have little bursts of time to work on it.

So, I'll probably miss responding to comments or commenting on people's work for a while. I will also miss you guys. Hope to be back around soon! :)
