Um, now I have a couple questions. 1. Someone mentioned the last time I attempted recording that there was a way to make it sound less like I was recording in a tin can. Any hints? It already sounds much better. I'm using podcast mode with female voice in Garageband.
Ok, more questions later. Probably every day I'll have a question:D Apparently this was just the kick I needed to get started. Let's hope my cold goes away so I can start recording for reals soon.

Not sure I can help with tin can issues, I use Audacity not Garageband but I will put a call out (podfic batsignal?) and see what comes up!

12 minutes recording, then I spent 16 minutes listening and editing that down to 8 minutes of finished draft. And with that, I'm done with my hour-long part of that podfic! \o/ It's a collaboration, though, so there will be more editing and stuff.
Recorded 6 minutes of a new podfic, then spent 8 minutes listening and editing that down to 4 and a half minutes. (And yes, these are my usual ratios between editing and finished podfic draft. I'm a fast editor, I suppose...)
I loved the contrast between the two podfics I recorded--the first one is kind of laid-back and thoughtful yet also vulgar. So lots of saying "fuck"--a listener once told me I have a sexy way of saying fuck. *g* And the second is much more tense, with more action and a fair amount of anger, making me read faster and more staccato. I just love switching between different styles like that--it keeps me from feeling like I'm getting stuck in a rut.
Total time spent on podficcing: 42 minutes (and I only committed to 10, but there will be days when I can't do any, so).

From:

Well, I've asked! Now all I can do is hope I'll get a positive answer...
ETA: Permission granted! \o/

...and then I got a "Hey, last call! We need your lines for this project by this weekend!" note (the first note I've gotten from these project leaders, holy shit), and spent an hour recording lines, editing, and mailing the lines to the project leaders. (These are people who are trying to record a 28-person, 80,000-word podfic... without coordinating via email. Somehow. They're (perhaps this is already obvious) not in podfic fandom!)
So I'm an hour up, amazingly, but I'm not going to consider myself ahead!
