both stories are beautiful. i can't wait to hear the next one.

awesome stories... at least what i heard. my older brother was being loud during the first one so i had to rewind. then the connection reset during the second story. but i liked both =3 it was cool to hear the stories and the storytellers voices.

great job on this.

that's so wonderful, omg i can't begin to explain.

thank you endlessly.

You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it.
And thanks for the story. I'm reading through your other work for more stories to use in the future.

ugh, my fiction page is so unorganized :P i'm in the process
of moving stuff off of there to somewhere more useful, i think.

Ever since I found out that there were such things as podcasts of fiction, I've thought it would be really cool to hear an audio version of one of my stories.

And I was right. It is really cool. >^_^<

Good job with the reading. Since I haven't re-read this story in some time, it was interesting to hear it instead. Of course I heard things I would change now in the text, but that's par for the course. ;) I also realized that this story and "Transformation" actually deal with very similar themes (even using, to my chagrin, very similar language to talk about them), but from different perspectives, and obviously to different effect.

Anyway -- very nice. Thank you! I shall repost this link a few other places, I think...

I'm glad you like it.

It is a real treat to hear your stories read aloud, and I've been blessed to find some great narrators to work with.

Yes, it can be embarassing, as you pick up on mistakes. I especially notices how some of my older stories the prose is kind of awkward in places. But we can be our own worst critics sometimes and people have really dug these stories so far.

"Transformation" is kind of on similar themes, and there are some similarities, but overall it's a different story and narrative and from a much different perspective I think. Also, there's a good bit of character drama in it too. I'll try and use "Under Cover of Moonlight" near these stories, so people don't think it's all you write

Win :)
Awesome stuff, I loved both the storys

I really liked the addition of music. It broken the stories up nicely and gave the podcast a sort of old radio program feel. Very, very good, and great job again with the choice of narrators.

Nice stuff here, I'm just surprised that this isn't more popular, seriously.

I really enjoyed "The Maiden and the Wolf" the wolf was so amazingly described, and what happened to him was very sad, but I'm left feeling a little unfulfilled. What happened to the wolf, did he die? Why was he getting weaker and weaker? How is it that the girl didn't seem to be too concerned with the wolf's death? and is it some sort of magic time traveling forest, or did she just stay with her grandmother for years, I thought she was just going to visit her grandmother.

anyway regardless I found the story extremely refreshing, wonderful job to all involved with both the stories.

Thank you. It's hard getting stories and audio-stories noticed in the fandom, so I'd appreciate any buzz you wanted to spread about the stories. I have the podcast feed up on www.anthrodreams.com too.

As I'm not the author, I can't give a definitive answer to your questions. You could ask  chrisgoodwin about it. However, my take on the story was that it's more lyrical and myth than a literal story. I read it as an allegory about growing up and meeting and conquering your own fears, so in the end the monsters aren't as scary and as powerful as we once perceived them. There's something lost and gained in that process, which is triumphant and bittersweet. The journey to adulthood takes time, and in the end you can't quite go home again.

Thanks for your feedback. I'm glad you're enjoying these readings. It's been good getting them out there and sharing more stories with the fandom.

Ah I see, I definitely appreciate your evaluation, it did have that sort of allegory/mythological feel to it, but I suppose I fell in love with the characters and just was hoping for more on a surface/ literal level. Anyway though thanks for the acknowledgment.
