Steve Radio: Episode One--The Terror Begins
After some very thoughtful and marvelous people have repeated to me on a few occasions that I should do some sort of podcasting activity, I am putting together Steve Radio, the first episode located here, warts and all. Share and enjoy!
We are starting on the text of Arthur Machen's The Terror, a short novella, as a shakedown cruise.
I learned a lot putting this first episode together, including but not limited to, voice work is work and you have to take a break every now and then, not just for the vocal chords but the eyeballs from reading, and having secluded time to do recording in the same local is very important for consistent sound quality. So just pretend that episode one was found on a dusty cassette tape, and I did my best transferring the electrons from one medium to another.
