Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that’s the most gorgeous profile pic ever, rose-colored-fancy!

Aww, thank you so much, Cathy! I’m really happy with how it looks, it’s one of my favorite drawings I’ve ever done! (It took an eternity LOL XD)

Free Sounds Library is good, MixKit has a lot of options available without signing in anything or what, you can get “unlimited downloads” for something but a lot is just fine to just kinda download whenever, so those are my two favorites cos they download without any hassle.

Ooh, cool, I’ll check that out! Thanks!

LOL YES!!! IT’S ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE AND I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY!!!!

I can’t wait to hear it! That’ll be awesome!

Ahhh yes, I thought I know my characters voices incredibly well until I tried to do them, apparently “hearing” a voice and “being able to imitate it” are two verrrry different things

LOL, exactly!!!

LOL YES!!! I KNOW THEIR DELIVERY DOWN TO THE SLIGHTEST INFLECTION…and…that’s hard to imitate a character (Alessio) who is both completely deadpan and overly dramatic at the same time!!!

(Not even to mention it’s actually rather hard to do a guy voice…which I totally wouldn’t be trying to do perfectly XDDD btw there’s actually a method for adapting different voices by imitating cartoon characters to start and a buncha different resources for changing your voice and… )

LOL, totally! I have more or less given up on getting the voices accurate, I just focus on getting the delivery right. In most audiobooks I’ve listened to, that’s the easiest to listen to.

YES!!! DO!!!!!!

Okay… lemme see what parts I have that are actually readable. I have Faye’s introduction scene, I have the scene right after the previous one I posted, it isn’t very exciting but it’s quite pretty and I like it…

Umm, I might be able to pull a few pieces from later in the second book if I cut a few spoilery sentences… *Quickly checks that* Ehh, nope. They don’t stand as full scenes, they’re too interconnected.

I have one scene from the first book that includes most of the characters… hold on. *Checks that too.* Ooh, that might work! It’s the right length, and it has Liorah, Sahar, Acyn, and Gavril. That’s the closest I’m going to get. I have to rewrite some bits of it but I’ll try to record it within the next week or two.
