Questions for the creator? Reach out to them via Tumblr (here)!

If you have a very specific prompt and are not flexible, it's best to contact the creator before bidding, even if it fits within their listed parameters. If you are asking for a specific kink, always ask first.

Highest rating: T
Minimum Bid: $25
Audience: All ages
Length/scope: 10 - 15k words
Special interests (what is this?): F/F ships, Genderswap/genderbending, Nonwhite characters' racial or cultural experiences

Characters/pairings of interest:
MDZS: wangxian is my favorite, and I could also read Sizhui/Jingyi or other juniors fic pretty easily, and I expect to be able to read most other ships. If you're concerned or curious, you can message me on tumblr or other socials. Anonymous asks are on also on my tumblr if you prefer. FAM: I'm pretty open for ships and characters! (G)I-dle: any, but I particularly love Soyeon Ateez: seongjoong/matz would be my strong preference

Subjects/theme/tropes of interest:
I enjoy reading humor and romcoms and really any material that fits well with my very flat American accent. For this reason, I have a preference for modern settings, but it's not required. In general, I like non-neurotypical POVs, pining, "idiots to lovers" and all kinds of tropes in that direction, angst, and diaspora experiences. On the podfic production side, I like opportunities to use sound effects and music. One of the things I can bring to English-language podfic is moderately better quality pronunciation of Chinese and Japanese (I'm confident but not native) and Indonesian (native accent, but the fic would still need to be in English). For kpop in particular, I have a strong preference for idolverse/canonverse or at least modern AU settings without supernatural or fantastical elements (animal hybrids, golden age of piracy).

Unwilling to address:
No reader insert. No hard kinks, but the rating should preclude that. Also no major body horror, particularly involving holes or teeth. If your fic candidate involves some level of body horror, please get in touch with me before or soon after you bid.

For kpop, no supernatural or fantastical elements (animal hybrids, A/B/O, pirate/royalty type AUs) and no mafia AUs.

Other notes:
Please have the fic author's permission to record podfic, either explicit permission to you or blanket permission provided on their profile/website/socials. I'll want this before I start recording, but you needn't have it at the time of bidding or winning the bid. If you can't ultimately secure permission, we may have to settle on a different fic, but let's talk about it when we get there. If your fic is considerably shorter than the limit I set, I may also be able to record more than one for you. We can discuss it further though, I'm pretty easygoing. And if your fic is a little longer than my limit, you can still bring it to me and I'll let you know what I think and how feasible it is that I do it. Ideally, you'll have a top choice for me to record, but also a backup or two in case there are issues with that fic (author permission, or some topic I have not anticipated). If I haven't read it before, please allow several days or weeks for me to review it. If you have some ideas about how the recording should sound, tell me about your wants and expectations early in the process. I'll try to provide at least one sample (a few minutes or a chapter) to start and then try to check in with you periodically as I complete stages (recording, editing, etc.) but I'm such a procrastinator that I don't want to overpromise you regular check-ins, because I felt a bit delinquent about that in 2024, in classic ADHD fashion. Hopefully I am better about that in 2025 than I was in 2024.
