    One thing I'd like to do this year is to narrate more stories and overall just improve my narration. If you have any stories you'd think would make good videos let me know.

      Would you hate me if I ask for Tolkien? I have a feeling I'd finally appreciate his "wordiness" through your narration (which, I suspect would go well with the sweeping landscapes he so loved to describe in detail). As always, all the best, Myth!

    Lovecraft is one of my favorite horror authors. The scary part of his stories is that they probably contain more reality than some people may realize. They describe parts of the universe that lay just beyond the light of our own conscious scope. Who knows what ancient evils dwell just beyond the edge of darkness.

      Its the best about his work it the fact that humans are basically unaware of the mechanization that the rest of the world is known too! The madness that comes from is the truth the characters discover!

    This was great. Keep it up- I found this channel because of your Lovecraftian themed videos, so this is perfect topic wise. The art was great. The one area I think you can improve on is overall pacing. So in general slow down, and think about what's happening in the story and how you can convey that with your delivery. For example, I would draw my words out and highlight SsSsS sounds when the monster slithers to the monolith and then read really fast (but not too fast lol) as the character, terrified, runs back to the boat. I also suggest slowing down a bit overall, it can be hard to understand what's happening especially with the older English. I just love your voice, and overall your enunciation was on point. Really looking forward to more of these
