391. JANUARY WRAP.
I started pulling together a post to wrap up everything I engaged in during January, but it exhausted me pulling books, television, and movies into a post with fandom. This is a post wrapping up all the fandom stuff I did or interacted with, and includes some recs!

I had a whole![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
voiceteam post written, but it seems to have gone missing, so RIP. I have ficinabox and yuletide posts half-written and will do a separate post for all exchange wraps because I'm being honest with myself and I know I will never return to them. (I have to track down the creators for FIAB and Yuletide, and I am too lazy to do that right now.)
For Voiceteam Mystery Box, I created or participated in:

I decided to make my first ever non-challenge podfic, and it was for![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
southernmedicine's fic. (I had actually half-recorded one of her other fics for Guess That Voice in Voiceteam, but I disliked how I said "luminous" and I couldn't stop laughing because it was such a surreal experience recording myself reading aloud.) When I chose this fic, I had forgotten she had written it for me!
I'm glad my first official pod that I made for the hell of it was for a friend's work! ♥

I commented on some of these on 29-Dec because I discovered them duringvoiceteam, but I think they deserve to be added to my list! These are recs, mostly of pods, but there's one or two fics in here that I remembered I had commented on. Give them a listen, and if you like them, comment! ✨ Sorry, I couldn't be bothered ordering them by fandom. I am that lazy today.
This does not include the podfic I listened to forcomment_bingo, during January. I'll post those as part of my completed blackout when I'm done.

It's been nice getting back into fandom and engaging again!

I contributed writing to this one. (I wrote the howler about the washing machine and the news segment about the cat.) This is my team's radio show; the editing and effects are amazing, and I think that there's a lot of creativity in it. I wish I had had the confidence to include my voice in the project, but I was very overwhelmed by everything and so very new to the idea of even putting my voice out there.

I lent my voice to this one for a brief cameo. The static effects are really cool in this.
