WordPress munched my previous post, so I’ll try again. I’m getting ready to fall down the NaNoWriMo rabbit hole in about a day (o_O) I’ve got an outline and I know how to use it. Beware.
I’ve been getting a lot of use out of this:

Recording narration for the Tales to Terrify. The first of these to post was Tim Waggoner’s Do No Harm, a spooky technozombie thriller. I’ve lent my voice to a couple other stories which haven’t posted yet, and I’m working on another now. Narrating is a fun way to make my illiterate friends “read” more fiction. My hubby seems pleased at my sudden interest in audio engineering and the physics of sound, too.
Tales to Terrify is accepting short horror stories if you’ve got one you want to publish for free audio publicity. I’ve got a ghost story I’ve been meaning to clean up and submit, but I haven’t gotten around to it yet. That excuse looks silly now that I’ve written it. Maybe that’s what I’ll do tomorrow while waiting for the neighborhood goblins to come knocking.
See you in November for a NaNoWriMo win announcement, I hope!
I recently purchased the same microphone, only mine’s silver. If you don’t have the shock ring, I recommend it. Besides eliminating thumps, it looks über-cool on my desk.
That mic rocks. I bought a cheap pop filter for mine, but the shock ring sounds much cooler! I’m adding it to my Christmas wish list. Thanks for the tip!
