Well E, I'm a new listener and I find you very easy to listen to. Very nice style. Have you ever thought of reading William Hope Hodgson stuff? Like his short stories "Carnacki" the ghost hunter series? I think you would read those very well. I'm a big fan of Jules Verne and the older writers.
Oh and if you would like to do a reading of one of William Hope Hodgson's stories, I have one in written from I could email you.
Hello Sid and thank you for commenting!
I don't believe I've read Hodgson's writings, though some of the titles look familiar so perhaps I have or maybe I have read books which reference his work.
I'm very intrigued. If you don't mind, I'd love an emailed copy. My email is publicdomainpodcast (at) (gmail) dot com.
I was looking for more short stories to read as Bonus podcasts -- and of course I can read them as normal podcasts as well.
I love discovering "new" literature so thanks for mentioning him!
Let me say that you have an great voice for podcasting. Have you ever considered reading any short stories by Guy de Maupasssant or Anton Chekhov? They were both excellent writers, and excellent examples of how an author's perception of life and humanity can be revealed through their work. It would be great if you read their stories aloud. I could get some and e-mail them to you.
almost forgot, keep the great podcasts coming.
