Important for the fandom community!

Our fannish lifeblood wants your help! Over the years we've all banded together to donate money, time, and/or talents to various charities - don't you think we should devote some of that energy to this amazing organisation who's maintaining and developing so many sustainable fandom projects for us? I for one, can't remember what fandom was like before AO3. I love that place, and I really hope we can do something to keep it going. 

They've got some great incentives for you if you do donate, such as sending you promotional stuff like stickers, shirts, etc. (dependent on the amount donated) and I believe it is also tax deductible if you are from the US, and if your country supports the applicable law stated on their donation page.

So if that's not enough to convince you, can I provide you more incentive by saying: donate and I will make you podfic?


So how is this gonna work? Basically...

Donate $10, get 3,000 words - with a cap of 15,000 words.

Fandoms I'm willing to podfic:

Any (including NC-17 and RPS), but if I don't know the source material, it will probably sound strange. Preferable fandoms include Sherlock, Merlin, The Social Network, XMFC, anime and manga, etc.

Notes:

• If the author has not given blanket permission, you will need to ask and show proof of their consent to have their story podficced.
• In the unlikely event that this would happen, I am only human and cannot reward you with a podfic over 15K even if you were to generously donate more than $50.
• I am rarely squicked, but I reserve the right to have you choose another story if it's more than I can handle.
• Word count limits will be upheld within reason.
• My strength lies in comedy/crack, my weakness would probably have to be porn and drama.

So here's what you have to do:

1. decide on a story that meets or is under the word limit.
2. grab permission if the author is not one who has granted blanket permission.
3. Comment here or PM me with the proof of permission, as well as the proof of donation.
4. If the story isn't more than I can handle, wait until I get off my arse to deliver the goods.
