Do join, it'd be great. The more there's people the merrier it is.

And Brinn too, great to see you in, whatever you'll be doing.

Easily. It's the natural order of things. How can anyone write with something else?

Sadly no.

I'm still waiting for Mac and Rikae... and Gwath should give it a try as well.

Nerwen, where are you? We'd like to hear your voice too?

Also the Ka should absolutely throw us a line or two with her male-acting!

And Eönwë, don't freak out with your breaking of the voice. Just give it a try!


I'll try to get the gang here to do something tonight as Brinn is visiting us here in Helsinki (they are now having a city-tour while I have been in a choir-seminar and I'm now back home preparing a meal to us). We have here possibly the largest gathering of the 'Downers ever: Brinn, Lommy, Greenie, Aganzir, Volo and me. That makes six 'downers spending a weekend together...

So maybe we could pull out some reading to you as well...

So those of you who haven't done it yet, please send me your e-mail addresses so I can send you the things we've done so far and for you to receive my mail-address where you could send your contributions - just short clips to begin with so as only to see if the equipments work and to give us others a taste of your voice.

Looking forwards to more contributions!

Awesome! Can't wait to see what comes out of that.

I am making an ad for my film class, so I'm going to be pretty busy this week, but I'll send you something when I can.

I'll have something quite fun to come for you just as I have time to edit it properly...

So we made the scene where the fellowship is in front of the gates of Moria while Brinn was here. Six different actors with one take! I have edited the laughs from between it already and thrown the voices here and there but I will still look at it once before I send it forwards...

Just wait to hear the performances and our home-made sound effects!

And remember you can join "the club" by sending me your e-mail - and hopefully also your own contribution...

Noggie, if you have a place to host that recording on the internet, would you please give us the link? It would be great fun for all of us, not just those involved, to be able to hear it!

I recorded a few bits on my entirely crappy integral microphone and it sounds truly truly awful. But, at least you now know kind of what I sound like when I read.
