Weird question. Does anyone have any works of writing that they would like me to make into an audiobook?

@dropsterdash an audio-book?
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Yes. An audiobook. I enjoy making them and I figured if I'm going to make some, I might as well make them for somebody.
-
@dropsterdash do you get friends to do different voices/characters, or do you give rarity's voice the ol college try
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline I pretty much just read it as if I were reading it to one of my younger siblings. Though I do a few things that would not be possible without the magic of editing. And If I know a song that fits the mood well, I'll put in some background music sometimes.
-
@dropsterdash like a dramatic radio show?
-
@dropsterdash That sounds cool. When my primary fic is complete I'll probably look into creating a dramatized reading or something, but it's a non-conventional romance story so I dunno
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Well, a little in some places, but no. Overall, its more like a person reading aloud. Though I do usually attempt to do different voices for different characters, to add some amount of depth to the whole thing.
-
@pony Message me or something. I enjoy doing it, and the worse that could happen would be a crappy audiobook and a good few hours of entertainment for me.
-
@dropsterdash you have permission to do these things to my works. A link to my profile page on FimFic is on my profile page here. Though I'm not sure when I can continue the incomplete story I have, you can still do your magic. (also if you do end up reading the incomplete one, let me know what you think because I'm trying to get ideas on where to take it, or at least how to start the next act)
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Sweet! What exactly would you like me to do with the finished audiobooks?
-
@dropsterdash for lack of better terms, I am giving you full sovereignty of your adaptation(s) of my current and future work(s), provided I have free access to them for personal use and/or promotion of my work. (obviously only the ones pertaining to or based on my work)
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Yeah, but I mean do you want me to email them to you? Post them onto your fimfiction?
-
@dropsterdash oh. you don't have a site, tumblr or personal page or youtube account which you post these on?
-
@dropsterdash and yes, email works.
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Not usually, seeing as it's really your stuff, just read by me. If I do an audiobook of my own stuff, I'll post those to my tumblr. Maybe I should make one just for my audiobooks... Otherwise, I just do whatever the content creator wants me to.
-
@dropsterdash DMed
-
@dropsterdash 1. you should partake in cross-promotion by asking permission to post your adaptations of other people's works on your tumblr/youtube/etc (which you should do both, tbh). 2. You have my permission to do what I just said for your adaptations based on my works.
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Okay. I will do that. Though my tumblr has no real life... And I usually keep my youtube for purely game-related stuff. I think I'll make a proper tumblr blog for these, though.
-
@dropsterdash if you do any dramatic readings for ones posted on EQD, and submit your tumblr to EQD, they may post your tumblr on a given day. Kind of like how they over-promote all the kiddies who overly-analyze the episodes
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Hmm. I hadn't thought of that. I haven't done a whole lot of audiobooks, though. And they are far from high-quality.
-
@dropsterdash You can try the !writers group btw I think.
-
@dropsterdash when demand increases, kick it up a notch.
-
@pony Good idea.
-
@dropsterdash :) Best of luck
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Well, I suppose I could, though I am limited by time, money, and equipment. This is more of a hobby I enjoy. Anyways, I'll email you when I've finished.
-
@pony Thanks.
-
@dropsterdash by the way, my stories are cheesy sappy romances that will make you cringe. Have fun! But for srs, thank you
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Well, I will cringe away, then. But, seriously, np. I enjoy doing this kind of thing.
