It seems like an eternity ago, but in February of last year I loaded up the car and drove to NJ with one goal in mind.
Don't get lost.
And have fun nerding out with my fellow size enthusiasts at the 2020 SizeCon. Attend some panels. Be on some panels. Maybe sell a few of my books, maybe a few of the mainstream size-y comics I'd brought along.
And find some voice talent to make some of my stories into audio books.
I wanted to find someone who GOT the dynamics of size, not some random narrator who was willing to do erotic/fetish content. I want my words to sound authentic even when they describe impossible things. I might get that from someone outside the community, but I thought it best to "shop local".
I knew what book I was going to pitch. Spoiler alert: it's in the title. Fangirl has the advantage of being long enough to be a good experiment, but not so long paying a fair price for narration was going to cripple my budget.
I ended up meeting a number of people who I thought might have potential. I ended up meeting three people who ended up doing audio work for me on this and other projects.
At the time of the Con I didn't know Aoife did narration. Unfortunately I'd already lined up someone else to do Fangirl by the time I made that discovery. Aoife very generously agreed to narrate a scene from Purse Pet that was released as The Dolly Dominatrix. She also made the art of little Becky putting her giant slave girl through her paces.
The second voice talent shall remain secret for now.
The third was Miss Molotov the woman who wound up taking the job. It was a first time experience for both of us. I'm biased, but I think she did an excellent job and went above and beyond to make certain I got my story told the way I wanted it to be told. If you have any narration you need done I highly recommend her.
The community got called on again in every aspect of this audio book's creation. The cover art is by CobaltDreaming and the audio editing was performed by Dick the MicroGiant. Please support their work as well.
As I'm typing this up the stage is set for SizeCon 2021 Micro. After the opening ceremonies Fangirl: The Audiobook will be officially available. In honor of the occasion I'm offering 50% off with a promo code you can get at my virtual booth. (Or you can message me for the code. I don't want to let anyone out.)
You can find the free nine minute sample here and the full 2 and a half hour story here.
Thank you for your support and have a great day.
