So this is me! Not the best audio quality, as I just recorded it quickly at my desk, but hopefully it’s good enough. I am just beyond excited to be playing Merry in the Sansûkh podfic. It’s such an honour and I can’t stop grinning.
I can’t wait to get to know everyone properly and get to work on bringing this amazing story to life.
Welcome, O Meriadoc the Magnificent, Esquire of Rohan and Master of Buckland, may the hair on your feet never fall out!
This list will also be in the Cast page in the sidebar, in case you need to find it again for whatever reason.
Congratulations to everyone, and to those of you not on this list, please try again in the next round; we loved all of your voices!

While we continue to work our way through auditions and begin to piece together Chapter 2, here is a little teaser I made to tide you over. Hope you enjoy! See below the cut for credits and attribution.
Tell you what. Here’s the number-crunch for all characters:
Alrís: 27 Auditions
Aragorn: 38 Auditions
Barís Crystaltongue: 48 Auditions
Bifur: 13 Auditions
Flói: 8 Auditions
Frar: 10 Auditions
Hrera: 68 Auditions
Merry: 60 Auditions
Pippin: 73 Auditions
Thorin Stonehelm: 31 Auditions
Nazgûl/Witchking: 27 Auditions
(Some of these don’t match previous numbers given; I ctrl+F’d for the characters, but some of them were labelled differently so I couldn’t find them on the first go-round. These are the correct numbers.)
Damn, it seems that we do indeed have an infestation of orcs in our Inbox. Anyone have orc-repellant? I’ve heard that soap works… Or maybe a tanning bed. (Of course, a tanning bed would be Ricky-repellant as well, so maybe not.)
Thank you muchly for the tribute (second breakfast is highly underrated).
We’ve uploaded the first chapter of the podfic to A03 and the Audiofic Archive. You may find the links in the “Links” tab of the blog. Tell your friends. 🙂
