My Laptop is dead.
At this point, god doesnt want me to finish this. She wants me to suffer the hubris of pretending I ever could.
How unfortunate then, that I am an atheist.

Weekly #Audiodrama Progress:
Spend an hour creating a soundspace. Love it. Return the next day. Completely redo it in ten minutes because its just not right in that one specific way but now you finally know what you want.
... This is gonna happen a lot, huh.

Due to chronic illness, I am gonna pretend I never set myself a timer.
I still intend to finish this and I hope to release this year. Just the "when" remains ambiguous.
See you then!

Writing #audiodrama is just an endless amount of "The script is finally, truthfully, for-real-this-time finished!", obviously followed by another rewrite.

Small Update:
Since I both broke up with a longterm partner and am in the process of moving away, Im delaying "Into the Frayed" to June 2025!
The thought that I "need" to work on it has been really stressing me out and I want this to be my brainchild, not my burden.
See you then!🦋

I love my brain.
The moment I finish writing and start producing, Im thinking of new worlds and new stories.
Thank you, beloved brain soup. We have a project though. The slots are filled, commissions are clos... - Hey. Hey. Stop that.
(Dont worry, production isnt writing, we're going strong :P)

[1/2] Today, we lost two hours of recording time due to a technological error.
But dont worry. All the important communication wasnt entirely lost, due to the miracle saving medium called brain we both possess. Re-recording should flow fairly quickly.

I am not done with Season 1. Far from it. I never planned on a Season 2.
But I am *thinking* about it for some reason.
Dont know if this is hubris, warranted or just dumb.
Anyways, you'll find me in the writers room.

I was really worried that we can only do asynch for a while - how it would affect quality, if it would be more effort for my VAs, if things got lost in translation - and in one singular recording, @delaylays.bsky.social made me believe it didnt matter.
I have an amazing cast. Absolutely blessed!

Writing Audio Drama is an endless effort to polish and pressure a piece of coal into a diamond.
Its only weeks and months later that you realise everything was sparkly already except for that one thing you thought was fine.
(In loving memory of my BA "Hilde", you need a spectro.)

Anyone can make a great fiction podcast. All you need is a Blue Yeti, some friends who are willing to speak nonsense into the record, some free editing software, a willingness to enter into a Faustian bargain with the dark presence in the lands beyond the shadows, and the gumption to make min 6 eps.

The pain of being done with the script, leaving it for weeks because nobody has time to record anything and then opening it up only to find hundreds of things to polish.
I love writing.
I promise, the polish is making it better :')

Me, as Im editing: Who thought doing this in all-monologues was a good idea? Who wrote that section like that? Where are the instructions for this part? Why is there not a good transition? I mean, seriously.
