THANK YOU FOR THIS POST! I was super worried that my accent was...overwhelming?
I don't usually have much of an accent, but when recording the kinky podfics I recorded (NEWB), I just could not say some of the words (you know the ones - cock, fuck, etc.) without my inner Goodfella coming out full-force.
So, the last podfic I recorded (still editing), I was really careful about how I pronounced things, going back to re-record when I heard the New Yorker in there. I CAN NOT SAY AWKWARD. IT'S VERY AWW-QUWUD FOR ME! lol
Now, after seeing this, I'm seeing that a slight accent isn't a major faux-pas. My censoring it, I'm afraid the podfic may seem more...well, not as natural a reading as it could be. IDK. I'm so new. I'LL NEED YOUR FEEDBACK, LOVELY COMMUNITY OF PODFICCERS THAT ARE SO AWESOME AND SUPPORTIVE!
