New Audio Series: Super Me (update 6/1/19)

12 Nov 2018 03:52 - 12 Nov 2018 03:53 #61953 by lfan
Now for something completely (kinda) different......



Lindsey Palmer is an arrogant, haughty 19 year old college student that certainly is NOT someone that should be entrusted with superpowers but......shit happens!   Super Me follows the adventures of Lindsey as she gains her powers and adjusts to her new life with them.  Lindsey will always be Lindsey, but now she has superpowers, and the world better watch out!

Super Me is an pay-for-download audio series written and produced by Papayoya and myself with lots of help and support from Conceptfan.  If that lineup alone isn't enough proof that this is very ubergirl-centric than I don't know what to tell ya! :P
The first chapter is now for sale on Gunroad for a nominal fee which goes towards the production of future chapters with our voice actress.  We spent several weeks auditioning and finding the right VO actress that could become Lindsey, and we all are in agreement that our choice is PERFECT for the character,

Our goal is to produce 20-30 minutes of audio for each chapter, with this one coming in at THIRTY-SEVEN MINUTES for less than $5.  With the download you will also receive two versions -- with and without special FX.  If we can get some support from this, we'll continue to keep making subsequent chapters, as we have a lot of plans for our girl!

You can purchase the first chapter of Super Me at the following link:   gumroad.com/l/WqOi

Just tried using PayPal and it went through without a hitch. Have you tried using a different browser/device?

Hmm......I'll send you a PM, Scott.  There have been orders coming in so people are definitely able to purchase it.  I'll try and figure it out with you

Nice stuff!

The person who read it sounded a bit stiff in the early part, but as it went a long she seemed to get more into it and more natural.

Is there an ETA on chapter 2? :P

Holy shit.. this is just beyond incredible, thank you all so much for making this. The version that you get with FX is brilliant! And the voice actress? Perfect. Absolutely perfect.

Amazingly written. What an absolute bargain.

Thank you and can't wait for chapter 2.

Ch 2 should be coming soon.....it's written and just needs to be edited.  As for the VO, thanks for the feedback.  I think "Lindsey" is far from stiff anywhere, but I respect your opinions.  This material is "tricky" sometimes, as the VO's don't really understand the content (we had that issue in the auditions), but I thought our Lindsey really played the part as well as we could have hoped.

It's just about up to the car crash, so it's really only the beginning. Then again, I don't listen to a lot of audio books or the like, so maybe it just took that long to get used to the format. I still think she was excellent for the role!

Can't wait for chapter 2 and soon can't come soon enough :P

Thanks Lfan for the fix..much appreciated.

This was an amazing experience and worth every bit the 5 bucks. The voice actress is perfect in the role as the arrogant, foul mouth superchick who really loves discovering her new powers. The sound fx were terrific too and really added to the story. Great job! I will buy again for sure.

I'm really happy for you both creating this new product even if it's hard for me because English isn't my native language. So it's going too fast. But don't stop this great work!

I'm generally not a big fan of audio books since I prefer using my imagination, but this was very good and imo worth it even at twice the price (not that I'm complaining mind you). You keep producing them, I'll keep buying them.

I was having the same issue paying, which I have not had with other gumroad purchases. When I switched to Firefox, however, the payment went through without a hitch.

Sarge....just curious, you using Chrome?   Most people seem to be having issues with Chrome.  If can't figure it out, send me a PM or a Discord message and we'll do it the old fashion manual way

I don’t hate Audio Books, but I generally avoid them.   I can read faster than I can listen.  I can a;so stop reading and pick back up easily, harder for me to do that w audio.

but I got this one on the creator list alone.   I’ve got more than enough entertainment from your stories that the cost was not a concern.

i have to say I was really surprised on how much I liked it.   Mostly the special effects worked, a few times I thought the sound was a bit out of balance, but more a quibble over style than a complaint.  The voice actress was great, not super fantastic, but really good, and she seemed to warm up as she went along..

Not my favorite kind of story, but it’s not like I don’t enjoy them.   She’s reprehensible, but that’s the fun part. :-).   And I have to say the story was billed correctly.   I knew exactly what I was getting, and it more than met my expectations.

I did think the section in the cave was well done, both in writing and delivery.

sorry.. Is there a text file included?
it's hard for me because English isn't my native language.
If a text file is included, I would be very helpful in understanding this story.

 Hey guys,

I've tried to buy with my credit card, but seemed to have an issue despite I received an alert of transaction from Mastercard. How can I get the access?

Hi everyone, 

First of all, it was great to see the very positive reactions we've been having on the audiobook. This was always an idea that intrigued me, I think they Lindsey is a character they offers many possibilities to tell a story in first person and we were incredibly happy with the voice actress we managed to find (after a long casting!). 

I've see that a few people have been having issues with Gumroad accepting the payment for the product. I checked with them and they sent the link below with some tips on how to solve some common issues. Hopefully they can help! 

help.gumroad.com/11167-buyer-faq/why-did-my-payment-fail

Looking forward to hearing more about what you thought on the story. We are very motivated to keep producing more chapters (chapter 2 should be coming soon!)

This is cool! 37 minutes is a lot of content. Especially packed given how quickly the voice actress powers through the lines. Wish my commute was longer.
