I think I did about 40 mins earlier today - nearly two pages, more porn and feels. I'm semi-seriously considering staying up until midnight to get my 10 mins in for Saturday because reasons. ;)

A couple of things keep me going. Partly, I feel very little pressure. Podfic is something I do almost entirely for my own pleasure, it's one of the few parts of my life where I don't feel I have to "achieve all the things". So when other things are stressing me out, this is something I can take refuge in. (The other things being knitting - which I'm sometimes prevented from by RSI, and reading - which sometimes doesn't feel "productive" enough. Because my brain is helpful like that.)

I also love the fics I choose to record. Reading them out loud is a completely different level of engagement with the writing, the plot, the characters. I enjoy that.

On a different note, does anyone else here record in something other than Audacity? I edit in Audacity, but I use the Ubuntu sound recording app for the actual recording. It results in lots of small, clean files that I then have to stitch together in Audacity (there'll be over 300 in my current project!), but it does mean Audacity can't hold my raw audio hostage if it crashes.
