I'm currently releasing two shows. The Twelvelms Conspiracy is brand new for 2025, a dark fantasy mystery centring around a magical university; Twelvelms. Remnants, a dark fantasy thriller, has just come back for its second season, set in a strange netherworld filled with the remnants of the dead.

Later in the day than usual, the most recent episode of Remnants just went live. This one is a bit of a heavy hitter; it made me sad writing, recording, and editing it. Bring tissues and line up something cheerier for after.

Now available wherever you listen to podcasts.

🦭 @hangingsloth.bsky.social (6) I listened to Twelvelms again hehe and thought it was really funny how this episode with the chairs growing out of trees at that coven came out in the same week as Remnants 42 which was all about furniture! (1/2)

if you're wondering what this experience was like, I'm afraid I won't be able to tell you as I will be in bed for the foreseeable future. there won't be any new releases next week, and Febuary's show schedul thankfully means I'll only be releasing a MUCH more humane max of one episode per week
So I put out two whole episodes of audio drama this past week! The Twelvelms Conspiracy Episode 6 'Underdogs' came out Wednesday. Episode 42 of Remnants, 'Snail Shell', came out on Thursday!

They have VERY different vibes, but I love both! They're available wherever you listen to podcasts.

funny thing about going back on t after taking a break is that I assumed it'd be business as usual but NO bam my voice is almost immediately half an octave deeper and I'm suddenly straining to make my little characters sound appropriately campy

42nd episode of Remnants, now live wherever you listen to podcasts!

This time, Sir attemptS a new strategy for rousing the Apprentice, bringing him a delicaTe snail shell.

All the talk of cabriole legs and linseed oil in this one make it more classic NSFW than TWFW*, so check them CWs!

UPDATE - due to a lack of auditions so far for Aunt Clara, we've made the decision to open that role up to non-Irish actors! The character is still Irish and we strongly prefer Irish actors, but you're now welcome to throw your hat in the (currently nigh hatless!) ring regardless 💕✨

I've been fairly quiet on socials whilst I get things together for As Yet Formally Announced Project, and I also started working on a new novel last week and I'm obsessed with it, so all of my non-audio-drama-making time has been consumed by that

Early Access to the 42nd episode of Remnants just went live on my Patreon! Sometimes when I write this show, I find a character who just... works for me? The remnant here was such a breeze to write. I'm looking forward to you hearing it!

sometimes when I’m writing I’m like ‘maybe this is too much’ and then I bonk myself on the head with a large cardboard tube like a looney toon and write it anyway

when I started doing voice acting nearly six years ago it was very much a decision made by necessity, and if you'd have told me that I would end up spending hours working on character voices and giggling with joy about the process, I would not have believed you

Listen to me: if you’re engaging with my work and you’re wondering ‘oh is it going to be gay’ stop. It is already gay. And yes. It will get gayer.

couldn't be me, I like hitting my characters with sticks to see what noises they make
My biggest flaw as a writer is wanting my characters to have good lives. I'm too eager to fix their problems, my sad little blorbos don't deserve all these monsters and madness
