Having a bit of whiny writing-angst today.  I came across a snippet of writing this morning that I'd forgotten about.  It wasn't much - just a cute bit of dialogue - but it got me poking around at all the *other* cute little bits I've jotted down over time.  It's made me sad and irritated at myself for not doing anything with them.  I wish the ficstarting  comm was alive.  It'd be nice to have some sort of structured support-system to get something going.  Self-motivation obviously isn't getting the job done. 

On the bright side, the podfic of doom is progressing. :)  Got the "rough cut" finished over the weekend.   There are still two-ish steps to go, but it's nice to have another milestone done and have it down to the niggly technical stuff like timing and clicks and breath noises.

:) I didn't know how people felt about accents so that's good to hear. I've been studying English for twenty years, and I teach it for a living, but I have to be conscious about certain sounds (we don't have TH sounds, and our V is between yours V and W).

I'll try the headphone mic, and if that doesn't turn out too well, I can always try a free standing one.

(Oooh, cats! I love cats, but I live with my aunt now who's allergic. :( )

I can go to a different room to record, so there won't be any interference from that side. Yes, that's probably line noise. I have Audacity, so I'll try that. I'm on a PC, by the way.
