Now that I'm no longer ashamed of my webpage, Paraka Productions please go there to see all of my works.

They should also all be up on AO3.

If you need to contact me for any reason (including questions about any of the many comms I run), my email is parakaproductions at gmail dot com.

I'm mostly active on Twitter these days, so if you want to chat with me over there, I'm ParakaPodfic there.


Remix Policy
If you'd like to remix any of my fandom offerings (that includes anything I created on this journal), all the power to you. I don't have much fic but you're welcome to podfic it, write sequels or rewrite them entirely; whatever strikes your fancy.

Same goes with my vids, feel free to copy ideas or take clips if you need.

If I've podficed a story that you'd also like to podfic, don't let me hold you back (I don't actually think you need to ask first before repodding but if you were thinking about it, no need).

If you want to do anything with my works or fannish presence, go for it, you don't need to ask first (although I'd be totally interested in seeing what you make of it :).

It's ITPE time again! Every year as I make less and less podfic I ask myself if I'm going to sign up again but #ITPE is still so fun so here I am again!

I'm parakapodfic on twitter, and paraka just to keep things clear.

Now, onto ( my updated letterCollapse )

It's ITPE time again, so here's ( my updated letterCollapse )

I am back on my bullshit: Terminator Edition

I will forever lovingly curse paradisecity for making me care about this canon when there's not a very big fandom to support it, and here I am more than 10 years later, still caring too much about this franchise.

All this is to say that I have seen the new movie and I loved it. I loved it so much guys, I can't even.

( Spoilery FeelsCollapse )

In conclusion, you should go see this movie and then share your feelings with me.

It's ITPE time again, so here's ( my updated letterCollapse )

So, I'm one of those people who doesn't really have a TMI gauge and overshares as a result. The state of my health has also become such a long running ~thing~ that I casually talk about all the time that I'm sure there are a lot of people who know something's wrong with me but are too polite to ask for the details. So, if you've ever wondered what the heck is going on with me or this is the first you're hearing about it and are interested, here are ( the details.Collapse )

Anyway, that's what's up with my head, why I wear sunglasses all the time, and why I have headaches in weird places like my cheekbones.

So, it's been a while since I've used my journal to post anything other than ITPE letters or podfic announcement (and I even stopped crossposting those here in 2015). I've seen people talk about using Dreamwidth more since the tumblr ban on NSFW content was announced and while I'm not very convinced people will stay here, I have seen more activity and a few people friending me, so I thought I'd post to at least acknowledge that?

As someone who hasn't really used tumblr in years I'm not personally feeling the pain of the new announcement. In fact, I've kind of eagerly been looking forward to the next fannish platform, hoping I'd like it more than tumblr (and praying to anything that will listen that it will have some form of moderation controls, which tumblr sorely lacks). Unfortunately even with the tumblr news, with nothing standing by ready to take over as the new fandom home, I have a feeling this is going to be an LJ-like end where fandom slowly splinters in a bunch of directions for years before people settle in a couple different places, one of which will be the most successful at gathering new fans.

Anyway like I said: I'm skeptical that fandom will settle back on Dreamwidth, but while things are a little more hopping around here (though I know there have been people faithfully using it this whole time, I have been keeping track somewhat) I might use it as an excuse to write out some posts I've been thinking about that don't really work on twitter, which is where I live most often these days.

I'm making a bit more of an effort to leave comments too, so surprise, I guess, if I'm suddenly talking to your here (again?).

It's ITPE time!

I'm completely between fandoms right now and keep sampling a bunch of different ones depending on how I feel, so let's see, ( what I'm down with at the moment.Collapse )
