the thing about seals, right, is that they sound like a person doing an impression of a seal. they just sound like that. this is part of why the selkie myth exists in the first place; they sound like people laughing or crying or shouting.
do you realise how much of a pain this is for a sound designer?!?!? REAL SEALS don't sound like real seals!!!
Audio Drama Sunday - 26th April ✨
🌲 @hellofromthehallowoods (206) Oughh Kellyanne has consistently been one of the most complex characters in the show and an episode entitled Atonements is SO relevant to her. I’m so glad that Jed and Russell made it out, but it sounds like the other Wicker children will continue to be a problem. Percy and Diggory’s fight was so uncomfortable, there’s so much hurt and history in all of their interactions! Like Russell, I still cling to the hope that Johannah Wicker is going to change sides and help save the day. Do it for Ingrid!!!
👻 @tellnotalespod (S2E2.5-4) Aw man, I forgot how much some of the season two ghosts really hit you in the feelings! I can’t even imagine that family’s reaction to finding out that there ghost was the father 😭 and ep 4 was such a transformative moment for Frank and Leo’s relationship! I would seriously hate to be stuck in a car for that long with one of my bosses, though, Leo is a hero!
🌞 Small Victories by @wgc-productions (8) THE SOBS I SOBBED. It got to the point where I nearly had to pull over, I could barely see for the tears. Oh my God 😭 I don’t even know what else to say! Amazing, amazing work from everyone involved.
🚚 Don’t Tell Alice (1) I used to listen to Alice Isn't Dead while looking down a microscope for hours and it made everything feel a little detached from reality. It’s so fun to get that feeling back and Jasika Nicole’s voice is such a balm!! I’m already hooked back into the mystery from this first episode!!
❄️ The NQD: Snowblood (by @hangingslothcentral) pilot is INCREDIBLE!!! I’m obsessed already. It does such a good job of setting up the stakes (hehe) for this new arc and, my God, Neige has some absolutely incredible one liners. ‘You have blown me off 6 times this month, and not in the way I would like’ has been popping into my head at inopportune moments all week! Support the kickstarter here: https://tiny.cc/snow-blood
🦭 @twelvelms (9) Another Twelvelms episode so good I was compelled to listen twice!! I feel like I love Quinn a little more every episode, her reaction to the Selkie reveal was so *her*, but her growing love for Cyan was an obvious undercurrent in it all. Ooh, Abagnale is also growing on me but THE MAN IS SUSPICIOUS, OKAY?! He has motives, I don’t understand them! The magical lore is incredibly interesting! It would make you feel pretty sick to dwell on that theory if you were a keen potion-maker. Magical veganism is the way forward! ✨ Next episode Cyan and Felix will sort some of their shit 🤞
💀 I started Our Wars Have Ended by @thesiltverses. I expected nothing less from this creative team, but what an incredible first episode!! Equal parts engaging and horrifying and already ripe with a cast of intricate and difficult characters! My seatbelt is firmly on and I am ready for the ride!
Have a wonderful week, everyone! 💫
Two of my shows are on the ballot for this year's British Fantasy Awards!
The Twelvelms Conspiracy ( @twelvelms ) is a dark fantasy mystery set at a magical university. Remnants ( @remnantspod ) is a dark fantasy thriller set in a netherworld filled with the remnants of the dead.
The Twelvelms Conspiracy might be the show for you if you like stories about misfits, found-family, political intrigue and folklore. You can find out more here hangingslothstudios.com/twelvelms/ and here's a little intro if you're curious:
Remnants might be up your alley if you're interested in stories which explore grief, history and cycles of trauma, especially if you love a good red-string mystery. This show foregrounds a different person's lifestory each week. Find out more at hangingslothstudios.com/remnants/ and here's an intro:
If you're a member of the British Fantasy Society, you can vote for either of them, (or any of the other fantastic fantasy audio dramas which released in the last year!) here:
Hi! Are you a fan of fiction podcasts? Are you familiar with pods such as Spirit Box Radio, Not Quite Dead, and Clockwork Bird? Do you like stories about magic and magical schools?
If you answered "yes" to any of those, then I think you'll love The Twelvelms Conspiracy! Twelvelms is a university of magic attended by young mages who hail from any of the seven covens that exist in the British Isles. However, students Reilly, Felix, and Quinn discover that learning may not be the only thing going on within these hallowed halls.
This pod is also being produced by Hanging Sloth Studios, responsible for the aforementioned pods, so you already know what you're in for! (That being a great story with amazing writing, loveable characters, and top notch acting and production).
If this all sounds great and you can't wait to get your hands (or, rather, your ears) on this indie audio drama, you can't just yet; first, it needs your help to come to life!
Hanging Sloth Studios is currently crowdfunding to get the first season on your podcatchers as soon as possible! They are trying to raise £10000 by August 18th to cover costs of production and compensate voice actors for their hard work. Please consider supporting if you've got the means!
You can also help by reblogging this post and/or this post, retweeting this tweet, giving the show's tumblr and twitter a follow, or just spreading the word!
Hi everyone!! My newest project, The @Twelvelms Conspiracy is crowdfunding, and it'd mean the world if you could toss a few coins in its direction if you are able!! This show means the world to me and I can't make it without funding, so here's some things you should know about the show!!
I've been working on the world in which Twelvelms is set for almost a decade, and the story of the show is something I've been working on for several years. I have written two full episodes of the show so far and have extensive outlines for the rest of season one, plus many later scenes I've written ahead of time!!
There's already a whole website full of
stuff
which expands the show's world and gives you loads to explore whilst you're waiting for the show to come out!!
You may be wondering why I'm crowdfunding this right now, not later!! Planning and development of a show this size and scope is time consuming, difficult and complicated. I want to make sure I know how much I'm going to be able to pay other people whose involvement I ask for before I move ahead and ask them to come aboard. Crowdfunding itself is a lengthy and stressful process, too, and I am having surgery in September, so ideally I'd like to avoid being in a position where the first thing I have to do when I return to work after my recovery period is crowdfunding, if I can!!
These things combine to mean that now is the best possible time for me to be fundraising for this show. I really believe in this show and I wish it already existed so I could listen to it. It's a thing I really believe needs to exist, and I'm so hopeful and excited about it.
Even small contributions to crowdfunds make a huge difference to a crowdfund like this; it all adds up in the end. Everyone who contributes will be moving stars so they all align to make this show come to life. Thanks so much everyone!!
(I'll get off my soapbox now, ily <3 <3)

Audio Drama Sunday - 21st June ✨
👻 @tellnotalespod (S2E23) The team are inching closer to having all the pieces together before the full moon and hopefully in time to free our best boy from the WORST MAN. I’m absolutely obsessed with Leo bumping himself multiple times in the loft, what a fantastic way of bringing the environment into the story. Absolutely loved it. Everybody fasten your seatbelts tight. I know tomorrow’s episode is going to be the WILDEST ride.
🇦🇶 The Harbingers by @gabrielurbinatm (16) Ooohhhh, what an amazing season ending. After all the tension and action of the last few episodes, this final one felt like releasing a breath you’ve been holding until your lungs burn. I knew it was going to be amazing, but GOD it’s so amazing!! I love how the reason for Amy and Adam’s narrative discrepancies finally being revealed. And, oh my god, Julian not answering his phone in the heart episode was f u c k i n g foreshadowing?!? I’m so glad that there isn’t a long wait between seasons! Great job, Harbingers team!!!
⚓️ @eelerschoice (9) I am also very much team: Never In My Life Did I Think The Laureate Was Coming to Eskmouth! Merry and Prin have truly cast themselves in a net of lies now! Lovely to have Aderyn popping up again, though I can definitely appreciate Pugill’s opinion of the bone creatures over their academic enthusiasm!
🌲 @hellofromthehallowoods (209) Oh, Nikignik ☹️ I’ve been waiting for Noptilnopt to show back up! I feel like they’re so evenly matched as a pair and it’s such an interesting combination of skills and personalities! Verryyy interesting that Noptilnopt has been listening in to the dreams, Nik deserves a being who cares about his interests!!! . . . Even if his interests are mainly watching over his deceased boyfriend’s tiny creations.
🦭 @twelvelms (10) I already knew that I wasn’t going to have time to listen to the new episode today so I treated myself to a relisten of Hollow Sleepers. I keep pondering on what Tassio did to that poor little baby! And Cyan’s tired ‘He knows. . . he knows.’ I’m sooo excited for the new episode. Twelvelms day truly is the best day of the month!!!
🧋 @hinaypod (83-86) I love saving up my Hi Nay eps so I have a few to listen to at once. I feel like the narrative reveals things in such interesting ways, I always need to be vigilant in case a vital piece of lore that links together multiple previous episodes is about to drop! I’m always such a sucker for a DJ in the Dark segment and I really enjoyed these ones! Particularly because Pocket was involved 🐈⬛💛
🌵 @desertskiespodcast (23) C.A.S.H is back! And with a mysterious request! What a great set up to a new season of adventures. And, Mac’s ‘Just when you think you’ve stopped grieving’ . . . buddy! 🫂
💀 Our Wars Have Ended by @thesiltverses (4) HOW does this show keep getting better when it’s already so amazing? Caul Serrikane is already set to become one of my most beloved characters of all time! I’m obsessed that the alliteration that makes 'dead diving' so powerful a term carries across into 'necronautics'. Amazing wordplay. And, god, the sound design of the transition into the Neth, I’m awed every time! What I love so much about what this team does is that the idea of dead diving could inspire enough story to fill an entire series of novels, but Caul and her talents are only a slice of this world, it’s so expansive! Listen to this show!!!
Have a wonderful week! Stay safe out there! ☀️
