Thanks for answering! :) I know there's a lot more to it than "just reading", and it shows when we listen.

@stefansecho.bsky.social @giftogab.bsky.social I am curious about something. How do you prep a manuscript so that when you read, you know which voices go where? I envision coloured highlighters but I expect there's something more clever than that. Also, thank you for being the voices in my ears. :)

@boskone.bsky.social has been a fun con so far, a workshops with @stefansecho.bsky.social from @skyboatmedia.bsky.social, a panel about the cozy side of horror, as well as tips and tricks for neurodivergent creatives. More to come!

What a great story, sir! Two characters very different from one another + fun to read, and the 3rd, um, main character, who was SO great. (Happy to hear the info from the helpful customer service guy as well.) @stefansecho.bsky.social's reading was perfect but #3's rendition was just a riot!

Stefan, I and our crackerjack team Skyboat #audiobooks @skyboatmedia.bsky.social take tremendous pride in researching (and enforcing) pronunciations. Plus, Stefan is just a damn poetic genius and knows all these things from his dizzying academic and theatrical background. @stefansecho.bsky.social

@isabel.kim, Thanks for your wonderful "Human Voices." @lightspeedmagazine.com's author spotlight was fascinating and gave background on the potential power of a voice. (BTW, I also found "deep ennui" on the one cruise ship I was ever on.) And bravo to @stefansecho.bsky.social's amazing performance.

I have listened to that one as well. I usually listen to Ender's Game at least once a year. It is one of my favorites and quite possibly my favorite book of all time.

Stefan Rudnicki @stefansecho.bsky.social · 12/10/2025
By all means, go for it. I guarantee it'll sound different to you. New revelations. Or...go for ENDER'S GAME ALIVE, OSC's dramatic adaptation of the events surrounding ENDER'S GAME. With an even bigger cast. Plus sound effects and original music, and a whole bunch of other features.

A few years back I had the pleasure and the honor of directing Diane Keaton reading Joan Didion's Slouching Towards Bethlehem. At a studio in Santa Monica. Sweet lady. She did a wonderful job. Wish I could promote her performance, but that version has disappeared. I'll miss her.

Stefan Rudnicki @stefansecho.bsky.social · 11/10/2025
Thanks for the referral. But it should be noted that this is a multi-cast production, and there are a few other narrators involved. They are ALL terrific.

Fascist occultism goes viral in Manish Melwani’s spine-chilling masterwork, MAMMOTH (@nightmare-magazine.com, hauntingly delivered by @stefansecho.bsky.social). It creeps from the shadows; inexorable as history, foreboding as myth If you haven’t read it yet, you will. #sff #horror #shortstories

Agreed! I know Roxanne would love to see your comments, and I'm just trying to adjust to her current social media, since she doesn't seem to be represented on bsky.
