this is not my eloquent post about the otw, and why it's important, and why you should donate.

this is my bribery post.

i will record[1] podfic of any[2] story[3] of the requester's choice for the first ten people[4] who comment here and then make a donation[5] to support the otw.

feel free to point people at this post until spots are full.

I'm gonna renew membership anyway, so won't claim a spot - it'd be depriving a NEW member/donor of their bribe, and that'd be bad.

BUT I AM TEMPTED.

[general_jinjur]

dude. throw in a request so that i'm not so embarrassed when nobody claims the spots! (if ten people do claim the spots, you will be deprioritized to #12. win/win!)

[anatsuno]

okay! I just have to think a bit and pick a story. :D

[general_jinjur]

ahem. *pokes at you.*

[general_jinjur]

yes!

[general_jinjur]

what's your fic choice?

[fish_echo]

I was really going to sit this round of money-pleaing out, as I am on a very tight budget right now. But I have a carefully-constructed bribe system which involves (a) bribing myself to do all the **** that I don't waaaaant to do (imagine the toddler-temper tantrum voice) and (b) spending small amounts of money occasionally. But as the prior discussion probably implies, I'm a sucker for a good bribe and OTW + podfic is a strong lure! So at the end of the month I will donate either ten dollars or however much money I would have spent bribing myself, whichever is more. (I have to wait or else the bribes won't work. I have a weird brain.)

[general_jinjur]

:D

yay! i love it when bribes work.

[fish_echo]

That is clearly because you are an evil, evil person! *glare* **

Would you mind if I took a while figuring out what podfic I wanted? As I don't have a list built up of ------brainflash---- would you consider [But Where Would They Live] and [The Dreams That You Dare to Dream (Or, But What Would the Children Look Like?)] (by thingswithwings) one podfic or two? *contemplates choices* *uses contemplation of many choices as a bribe*

**because tone of voice doesn't translate over the internet: this is said in all fun and games.

[general_jinjur]

i...would consider that one podfic. in two files.

take as long as you need.

[general_jinjur]

yay! i like how i can now either count this as five slots taken, or one slot taken.

i am excited to see what story you ask for.

[general_jinjur]

oh man. that would be wonderful.

[were_duck]

Can I claim a spot? I'd be a new OTW member, and I love your podficcing voice... I can't donate until I get home tonight, though, as I'm at work right now...

[general_jinjur]

:D

consider a spot claimed! let me know when you decide on a story.

[were_duck]

Oh my goodness! I will. I have to decide! I'll drop a decisive comment after I donate! THANK YOU!
