The Hole; or, The Effects of Unrealized Inadequacy on the Human Condition

Audiobook of a short story I wrote from the collection Ascent to Mediocrity.

I like the story. I think it's funny. Although I admit, I'm biased.
I used a text to speech application and I think it worked pretty well. It's much better than me reading anyway. If you want to see more audiobooks, be sure to subscribe so maybe one day I can get monetized and make more of these videos.
Also check out my other books and follow me on twitch or don't. I mean I'd prefer if you did, but I understand that I didn't link any of those things and it's hard to find time to do those things. Anyway, it's like one o'clock at night and I have to wait 37 more minutes for this to upload. Then it has to process. I guess I could leave my computer on overnight. But I'll make it. We'll just do-continue doing- some stream of conscious stuff.
So, uh, yeah. I was going to start a new mario maker series where I do endless expert, but immediately the editing seems overwhelming. I spent an hour and a half playing, now it's going to take two to three hours to edit. That does not seem like fun. Plus, everything always takes longer than you expect. Even this video was an ordeal. Lightworks didn't have an option to adjust textbox sizes so I had to manually separate each line. And then it was my first time working with text to speech and that almost messed up. I have about two hours of generation and this one disappeared. Luckily I downloaded it first, just to be safe, but the website froze and when I came back it was gone. So that could have been real bad.
I think what I need to do is focus on shorter stories. That would seem to make the most sense. I would have greater chances of things getting seen. So I'll probably upload based on word count. I had wanted to do The Imposter, but I think that's like 10,000 words. Reality is pretty short. I'll try another voice with that one. Let me know what you think about this voice. To me there were some noticeable artifacts in places. The ones that were isolated I took out. But overall, much better and easier than me doing it. I actually tried recording audio yesterday like two paragraphs took thirty minutes. I decided, pretty quickly, that I'm not doing that.
Anyway, there's still thirty minutes left. I'll just come back in a little bit. I should probably proofread the stuff up there. Yep, probably should. But anyway thanks for reading or in this case listening.
