Since Katie deleted both her livejournal accounts, I think podfic lovers might want a place where they can be able to find all the links to the amazing audio versions of her fics, which I love passionately. Thank you both to my favourite author in fandom and to all the lovely podficcers for recording these wonderful stories. Enjoy! … and please let me know if something is missing: i would love to add/update this list!

EDIT: replaced broken link to janeturenne’s podfic. Jane, please let me know if you want me to remove my link or if you have fixed yours.

Hey all, my Christmas wish is to get back into vidding. It’s a hobby I invested in for a number of years. I stopped so I could devote more time to my original fiction writing, but I’ve hankering to get back into it for a couple years now. I moved from Windows to a Mac in 2023, so I need new video editing software. It costs $219. I’m currently working 3 part-time jobs and barely making end’s meet, so no money for fun stuff. If you could donate to my Ko-fi to help with this (admittedly frivolous) expense, that would make my day!

Here’s a couple of my vids from many moons ago:

I Just Had Sex (Thor)

Whole New Way (Sherlock Holmes x fandom)

Plus my Ko-fi again :)

This week, I read a fic that was around 20 years old, which had originally been posted on the author’s personal website and which she added to AO3 a few years ago. She listed her email address with the fic, so after I finished reading, I sent her an email saying how much I enjoyed the story, how much I appreciated the work and effort she obviously put into it, and thanked her for uploading it to AO3. She responded the next day and thanked me for my message, then said she had a few more stories in the same series that she hadn’t gotten around to uploading. I checked this morning–she added a 35,000 word novella and thanked me in the summary.

👏 comment 👏 on 👏 old 👏 fics 👏

Reminder, analytical AI and generative AI aren’t the same. While I loathe generative AI and feel there is no ethical way to use it at this time, analytical AI can serve valuable purposes in many fields.
