You may be looking a trifle askance at the number of exclamation points in that header, but I'm here to tell you that every one of them is deserved. I got a podfic rather than a fic - and it is a gorgeous, skillfully read, delightfully soundtracked version of the story I wrote just last round, in which Enola Holmes and Mary Russell join forces with sometime jungle princess Nell Watson, née Nylephtha Goode Curtis of the Zu-Vendi, to finally defeat the schemes of Von Bork, villainous German spymaster - with, of course, appropriate support from Sherlock Holmes.
To say I am delighted is several orders of understatement. The Women in the Case is fairly close to 7,000 words - it's a 43-minute audio - and between the length and the considerable dialogue (featuring the voices of three different women born on three different continents), creating any podcast at all amounts to a considerable effort on someone's part. Creating one this well-executed is a feat of impressive skill and reflects a high degree of dedication, and I can't begin to thank my anonymous creator sufficiently for having devoted that much work to my words. Here is your link; don't hesitate to go forth and listen!
