The Reformation of Wolfshausen
Teil Acht-und-Dreizig
To hear this week's episode, read by Jamie Dawn and her son, Taylor, knock on the cottage door.
I always wanted a cottage with a thatched roof. I'm waiting for the story to load. Not quite done. 28 seconds to go. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, ,2 , 1 be back after the listen.
It's late at night. This story is like the soap-opera, The Young & the Restless. You just pretend to know what happened two-weeks ago - even if you don't.
I'm looking forward to hearing JD & Taylor's oral interpretation later in the day.
wow....excellent reading, but are we sure there were only two people reading? I swear I heard three distinct voices...one of those two has quite some vocal ability.
Gretchen would have made an exxcellent circus owner :)

ReplyDeleteGreat reading Taylor and Jamie Dawn.
ReplyDeleteI loved the eyelash, eyelid line, Doug.
Great reading, they work well together. You would make a good script writer, Doug.
ReplyDeleteGood story advance. Can't get the audio for some reason. I'll have to try again later.
ReplyDeleteOops! Here comes the sound!
Good job guys.
It was lots of fun doing the reading.
ReplyDeleteTaylor even ADMITTED that he had fun doing the reading.
You really have a winner of story here, Doug!
Happy Weekend!!
:-)

It seems it's well-liked.
Thank you, Jamie Dawn and Taylor, it was great!
ReplyDeleteAn afterthought:
ReplyDeleteDiggin'on the graphic. I've always enjoyed anything by Albrecht Durer.
Another afterthought:
ReplyDeleteAriel. From your profile, I see you live in Zimbabwe, Africa. Do you need to update your profile, or do you still live 8,000 miles away?
Nothing closer?
Thanks, Nessa. J.D. and T.T. did great, didn't they?
ReplyDeleteIcy, it's all casting. Yeah, I bet they read together more than they'll admit.
Thanks, TLP.
JD, TT just up and admitted it? He only has about one more year to be surly. Thanks to both of you.
Karen, I don't pretend to know what happened on The Young and The Restless.
Agreed, Ariel.
Karen, there are reasons the new kid shouldn't be hall monitor.

Pffft, soap opera, more like Masterpiece Theater.
ReplyDeleteLovely rad guys.
Excellent! Bravo! Great reading.
ReplyDeleteAnd great plotting, Doug. I am so intrigued by this story I am just dying to know where it's going.
Minka, Dietrich's voice I think, was J.D.'s voice reengineered by Taylor. Which if you think about it is perfect.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Coop. That's more like it.
I'm curious myself, Quilly. Thanks.
