Audioblog - From the Archives
This morning I tried recording a longer story, one from deep in the archives.
It is an old story (circa 2004), and I would do some things in it differently if I wrote it now, but bits still make me laugh. I made some minor cuts for the recording (textual jokes that didn't translate and some narrative colour that, in my contemporary opinion, didn't.)
It was a challenge to record at this length, and I can hear where I start to struggle -- where I lose the specific rhythm of the narrative, or start to lose volume. I made some edits, some of which are almost seamless, and some, yeah, not.
Anyway, it was worth the attempt to learn more about the form.
The story (about 11 minutes long) is here.
