reena_jenkins is a terrifically talented podficcer and I'm both proud and humbled to call her a friend and fan of my work - she's recorded quite a bit of it in her (now prolific!) portfolio. This time she's not only outdone herself, but she's roped the equally talented

bessyboo into collaborating with her as the Anonymous Slayer and the Interviewer, respectively, from Indeterminate Place, UK.

Let me put this on the record: the audiobook of World War Z, even though it's abridged, is my favorite audiobook of all time - a work of art unto itself - and I could slip this podfic into the playlist and have it fit in seamlessly. You read that right - their performance stands up there with the voice acting of Henry Rollins, John Turturro, and Mark Hamill.

And then

bessyboo had to make cover art for it, and my squee-ometer just completely broke - it went past eleven, somebody divided by zero - I dunno, but - guh! It's just... perfect.

Anyway, now that I've gushed, you can find their posts about it below - along with links to their work. Give it a shot, even if podfics aren't really your thing. Their collaboration is the reason I have an open transformative works policy - it transcends its own source material, and it was a complete and utter surprise to me this morning. Ladies, I am so amazed by you. Thank you.

Hey guys! Sorry I disappeared, I had life issues come and carry me away. But here's a little something I cooked up in notebooks while I was shifting around. Consider this to be a live beta, it's been awhile and no one has looked at it, so I'm not sure what the reaction will be, but criticism and comments are more than welcome.

Title: Indeterminate Place, UK (1/1)
Author: MoragMacPherson
Rating: PG-13
Content: Zombies, action, angst, black humor, horror, references to graphic violence, language, references to religion, apocalyptic imagery
Timeline: Roughly ten years after the official end of the Zombie Wars
Disclaimer: Max Brooks foresaw the Zombie menace with remarkable clarity, Joss Whedon knew that the Slayers would help save us from it.
Archive: Here and eventually TtH. If you'd like it, let me know.
Author's Notes: For those unfamiliar with World War Z, it's a collection of interviews about the Zombie plague that swept the globe. The formatting is from the book. "Zack" and "G" are both slang for Zombies.
Summary: What measures did the Slayers take to hold back the Zombie plague?

[This is not the first blindfold that I’ve had to put on, but it is certainly the strangest. Not only can I not see, but I cannot smell nor can I hear: there is nothing but the sound of my heartbeat, and for some reason I cannot keep track of how many of those go by. I know that I’m walking, but can feel nothing beneath my feet. I cannot even tell if we made any turns along the way; the effect is so disconcerting that when they remove the blindfold I immediately vomit. My host has a bucket ready in front of me. She sets it aside with a smile as I settle into a chair. We’re sitting in a white circle of light surrounded by darkness. My host is a tiny, slight woman, and impeccably groomed. I don’t know her name or where we are, only that this is where my inquiries into her near-mythical organization have led me. Her name, she says, is unimportant, what is important is that she speaks as a Slayer.]
