#Audiobooks
Whoa - I hit 1200 subscribers on my YT channel ... um, thank you?
Not sure who to thank for this but my audiobook YT channel hit 1200 subscribers this week. This is the first time this has ever happened to me so I'm feeling a lot of feels rn. Any recommendations, suggestions, tips? Really proud that something I've done is making people happy. In case you're curious, my latest project is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKfo9IZZY20
Thank you again, people!

Morning Folks! I recently wrapped up the Old Man's War series by John Scalzi and talked a bit about my thoughts on the six books. I also talk a bit about being bummed that I have no more books to consume in that series.

Think of a beautifully typeset book. And then someone decides to decorate that text with a variety of netting. Think of wire window screen, guaze, swoops of lace and everything in between. The text is so obscured it can barely be read.
This is what it is like with an audiobook “decorated” with music. This is my experience with particularly “I Found You” by Lisa Jewell. The sound of a good read was completely spoiled by random musical overlay.
This is not a visual movie decorated with music, it is more like a movie decorated with random emoticon pop-ups obscuring the scenes.
I listen to audiobooks because my sight is not as strong as it used to be after years of staring at screens. My hearing is just OK, but not in crowded places—like audiobooks with overlayed music.

oooo one of my narrations is featured in Theresa Bakker's "Desideratum" podcast! Give it a listen!

We’re talking about A LIGHT IN THE FOREST - a Colorado Book Award Finalist - on this Desideratum.
This week we’re talking about being a work in progress with author Melissa Payne whose new novel A Light in the Forest got us talking about small towns, and pigs, and intuition.
@hisham_hm Thanks for the nudge. Apparently https://librivox.org has some sci-fi collections, yay!

@bookstodon folks, do you listen to audiobooks? If so:
- Do you have favorite narrators? Or the opposite? Ever started or quit listening to something because of the voice?
- if you’re talking about a book, do you say you’ve read it?

The Satanic Verses
Read this years ago, and remembered nothing about it.
The part I enjoyed the most was when the scribe kept incorrectly recording the prophet's speeches. And no one noticed.
As this plays into my not being able to understand anyone's claim about any book being the word of God.
listening to the part where the Red Corsairs and Night Lords loot a whole-ass Marines Errant fortress monastery and butcher everything in it
it's pretty fun stuff

Who loves a good #audiobook? CHENNEVILLE by Paulette Jiles, read by Grover Gardner, will be released tomorrow. In my top book picks of the year. Gardner is a great narrator. More about the novel on my blog https://jillsreads.com/chenneville/ @bookstodon
Hey lovelies! 🌸 Ever wondered if audiobooks are as good for your brain as reading? Well, science says YES! 🎧=📚 Studies show that whether you're listening or reading, your brain processes the info in similar ways. Even better, this could be a game-changer for those with dyslexia. 🌈💕 So, whether you're cooking dinner or lounging in your fave clothes, pop in those earbuds and dive into a story! 🍲👗 It's all good for that beautiful brain of yours. 🧠💖 #Audiobooks #Reading #BrainHealth
Finished audiobook Radicalized by Cory Doctorow. 4 stories of dealing with the pathologies of business, health, justice, and society. All relatable in one way or another. I seem to remember the story "Unauthorized Bread" from a long time ago and wonder if it was published elsewhere at some point. A good audiobook production with 4 narrators. Recommended. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

That comes from the audiobook, a #DRM-free, independent edition that I financed, produced and narrated myself. You can get the audiobook everywhere *except* #Audible, #AppleBooks, and #Audiobooks.com, all of which have mandatory DRM policies. You can also get it direct from me:

My #audiobooks plan for the next few weeks is to plow through whatever Audible has available from the Aubrey/Maturin series, unless y'all have good alternative recommendations (fiction). Feel free to comment below with your suggestions.

@EgyptianAphorist As I'd commented in another thread, there's a full reading of The Prophet (1h45m) here:
New instance, might as well do an #introduction: Hey, I'm Jan. I'm a 32 years old cishet dude from the north of Germany. I'm a software engineer professionally and for fun (mostly in #python) but I also enjoy good #music, #coffee, #podcasts and #audiobooks. I'm struggling with #depression, pretty severely from time to time, and I might end up posting (CW’d) from a dark place, when things are bad. Also, follow me for the occasional dog photo (tax attached).
It's almost the end of another month & you know what that means!

This is a very strange thing to ask perhaps, but can anyone suggest any audiobooks where the narrators have #Welsh accents? I was flipping through my library and ran into something from some time ago and am now remembering just how lovely that accent was to listen to. I'll take any genres, just need there to be a lot of emotions. Slight preference for sci-fi/fantasy. #Books #Audiobooks
My hold on Ann Leckie's Translation State audiobook came in from the library this morning. I've really been looking forward to this one.

Giving #audiobooks a first real shot with one I borrowed from the library.
As I’d thought may happen, the quality of narration will be key to my enjoyment of it. This first one is split between two narrators who are clearly experienced at doing this kind of thing, which is good.
But then, unexpectedly, they’ve mispronounced a couple of words,
and the inflection one uses is sometimes different than how a sentence would read to me. Which is a bit distracting.
Very convenient format, though.
I love #Audiobooks.

Falling asleep: Favorite fiction
I've been on here since November 2022, and I still don't have an #Introduction post. When I first joined, I was a bit lazy, and also couldn't really think of anything to write about myself, and as the time wore on, it just started to feel superfluous, and even a bit silly, to write an introductory post when I've been here for almost a year already.
But here goes:
I was born and bred in #SouthAfrica, and I really love it here. I often post stuff using that hashtag, both slice-of-life type posts, and occasional commentary on local #news. Specifically, I live in the City of #Ekurhuleni.
I'm an independent author, and have written a few books (website link in my bio), but for various reasons, I haven't written anything long-form in some time.
And one of those reasons is that I'm #PartiallySighted (I have #RetinitisPigmentosa), which has progressed quite rapidly in my old age. As such, you might see me using the #accessibillity hashtag from time to time, as I comment on the sorry state of it in websites and software.
For the same reason, I don't read nearly as much as I used to. I'm trying to get into #AudioBooks, but I'm still struggling with them, man. I really battle to focus long enough to finish one. (At this point, I should probably also tag #bookstodon and @bookstodon). :-)
By trade, I'm a Software Developer, and I love technology. But I'm an old-school lover of #technology, so I dislike web apps, struggle with mobile (also see my #disability), and prefer to work on a big monitor with an external keyboard and mouse, rather than a tiny laptop. Unlike most developers, I can't use multiple monitors because I keep losing the mouse cursor. ;-) #programming #development
Because of my interest in tech, I'm also often commenting on the state of the #Fediverse in general and #Mastodon in particular, and what I think should be done (spoiler alert: I think Mastodon is perfect the way it is, and it should be left well enough alone). :-P
Last but not least, I'm a #Methodist Christian, and my #faith is very important to me, so you'll sometimes see me sharing inspirational #Bible passages and discussing things related to #Christianity and Christian #theology.
Oh, I'm also a husband to the most wonderful wife any man could ever hope for, and a foster father to two beautiful teenage girls, but I don't tend to mention them much, because privacy.
Phew! Quite a wide range, hey? So feel free to give me a follow, if you like. Just be warned that you're unlikely to agree with EVERYTHING I post. :-D
Going into the weekend, you deserve a spicy audiobook to relax with, don't you? Mmm, yes, I think you do. 💋

I am currently listening to Overlondon by @georgepenney that I was gifted by the author.
I'm not that far through as yet (goddamn you life, always interfering), but first impressions are fantastic! It's making me giggle and keeping me intrigued.

now i just have to look up the other dragons' names to see if all of them are in #Gàidhlig 🤓
by 41% of the audiobook some of them were mentioned, but more in passing, so i couldn't really parse their names and, well, i didn't expect to understand them.
sssssso excited!
but the main reason i'm so excited about this book is smth else 🤓
when Violet's dragon said his full name, Tàirneanach, i just thought "well, it's only natural to be called Thunder if you're a huge badass dragon". after a heartbeat i realised that that name is in #Gàidhlig, and i just understood it on the fly 🤯 it was so unexpected and random, it gave me such a enormous sense of mastery, even though it's just one word

i #AmReading Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros, and it's soooo gooood! i usually listen to audiobooks before bed and i get sleepy after 15-30 mins. not with this book, i do not 😁 it's so packed with action and drama and dragons and danger and daggers pew pew pew (why does everything start on a D? 🤔)
i appreciate especially how cool the protagonist is with her sexuality and body, and she has flaws, how refreshing 😁
anyway, check it out, it's fun!

I just got an email from BookBrush this morning, and it contained a survey about interest in creating AI narrated #audiobooks with them if I would paid a one-time fee of $999 USD to join that service. Of course my first thought was what about the #narrators? What about quality? And a number of other things. I did some research and I’m even more concerned, and of course, the email was sparse in details. While it’s tempting as a #SelfPublished author, I still care about the people it effects. The narrators and the authors. Am I being too paranoid about this or is the appropriate reaction? Who wants to discuss? #WritersofMastodon #SelfPublishing

I emailed and ultimately got on the phone last week with ACX.com and it turns out I can't speak directly to the department in charge of taking down the audiobooks, nor could anyone explain to me exactly what happened or why, but the customer service person I spoke to has submitted a request to review my case.
I don't think anything will come of it but I'm doing what I can.
Meanwhile, the Forbidden Hedon Press #audiobooks are still on Apple for now. Please buy them wile you can!
If you want prove that disability access makes the world better for everyone, let’s look at #Audiobooks. Audiobooks were never made for non-disabled people, yet, non-disabled people even read exclusively through audio. Just remember that the next time you download a book from #Audible and the same goes for #AudioDescription. Audio description is actively used by truck drivers and more sighted people but again, none of these were made for you. You are experiencing benefits of our advocacy and hard work. Support Disabled people financially so they can continue to do their work. I guarantee your life will improve as a result. Audio description allows you to watch movies without looking at a screen. Audio description describes actions, scenes, and other visual aspects between natural pauses in dialogue. You can see a list of titles with AD and what service it is on, including DVD, at https://adp.acb.org/masterad.html
My Book backlog is getting empty. Only 6 to go and 3 of them are trivia. I would love to have more readings in:

- engineering
- agile work
- psychology
- open source
- science fiction
For further reference. I am a fan of Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Gene Kim, Marianne Belotti, Teresa Torres, Jim Kwik and Sergej Lukuanenko.
Please feel free to recommend titles, authors, courses and other material.
Thank you, a lot, in advance.
