Radio RedBubble
This concept has been promoted by Rhana and Nat among others, the idea is to record audio files so our RB friends know what we sound like, sorry about the crap quality, have a look at Nats journal for details about how to do it, I cant wait to hear what Julie Langford sounds like, then we can imagine what Roy sounds like ;-)

Thanks Deb, it seems like a good idea to put a voice to a name, though we’ve spoken so that’s sort of redundant LOL, Thanks for having a listen :-)

This is THE BEST concept I’ve seen yet on the bubble gang.
Matt, it was brilliant to hear you mate and those poems were quite fantastic. It really does bring home the fact that there are souls with hearts and minds behind the words on the screen.
I haven’t a mic for my pc as it stands, but as I have been moved by hearing you I will indeed purchase one so others might hear my voice as well.
Again, thank you very much for what you’ve all offered here. It really does touch me to hear the realness of your voices.
Matt Penfold replied
Hey Steve, thanks for the lovely comment mate. I hope you get a mic and we can have the pleasure of hearing your voice, I’m glad you are moved by hearing my voice, I felt the same way listening to the others who have posted sound bites…
Erika .
hahaha! Matt!!! Now I know how you sound like! :D :D
That was so cool! It was awesome listening to you read your poems!
Matt Penfold replied
Haha, thanks Erika, I’d like to know what you sound like too, I wonder if anyone might have guessed what I sounded like ?

Danielle Knight
lol, thats so cool.
Matt Penfold replied
Thank you Danielle, glad you liked it, the sound quality is bad but I have a new mic now so I think I might add a reading to my next long poem, (I’m working on an epic about life and love LOL :-)

Hey Tiger That was so fun getting to hear your voice and your accent ! lovely for you to read your poems to us too. Now I have a voice to go with that big avatar grin :) xo
Matt Penfold replied
Accent? what accent? LOL good on ya Lisa, I’m keen to hear your Chicago accent ;-) xx
Lawford
Why does that first one sound so familiar??
Matt Penfold replied
Which one Lawford? If you mean “Nancy @ the tears dot flow”, it is because it is based upon “Clancy of the Overflow” by Banjo Patterson. I make this clear in the original post and also include a link to the original poem. The other two poems are completely original and if either sound familiar it is pure coincidence. Thanks for taking the time to have a listen :-)
Shoaib .
well there goes my plan of saying lets hear you first ! lol
great work, its awesome to hear you read this
def puts it in a whole new light
and its encouraging too, maybe i will try someday lol
Matt Penfold replied
LOL, thanks Shoaib I hope you do record your voice for us to hear. I appreciate you taking the time to listen :-)
funkyfacestudio
