Reader's Notes:
First off, to my usual listeners, I have not abandoned the Sherlock fandom – I’m just waiting for permission to record the story I want to record next there.
In the meantime, to amuse myself, and after seeing so many recommendations for “Killing Eve”, I binged watched that. There are eight episodes in Season 1 (the only season out at the time of writing this), and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Then I went to AO3 to see if there was fan fiction for it yet. And, of course, there was! 159, at the time I checked. I sorted on kudos, and decided to read the highest rated story, where, if you know me, if I like the story, my brain immediately tells me that I need to record it. I loved the authenticity of the voices, the humor, the short, snappy chapters, and the story arc worked for me. So I promptly sent off a request to yotoob, the author, who graciously agreed to let me create a podfic for it.
Now, anybody who has listened to me before, knows I suck at accents. So, many apologies. On the upside, one of the main characters is American, so hey, that’s easy. The other, is harder. It’s largely a Russian accent, but the character herself knows multiple languages and can do different accents. I’m trying, and I will continue to try and get better as I progress recording this story, but I understand that it will likely make some people cringe. Please be kind.

Definitely won't be updating daily, because it takes me an insane amount of time to do this. But they are lovely, short chapters, so I will update more frequently than I usually do. Thanks for listening.

Reader's Notes:
There is a change of Point of View in this chapter, and trying to read it in Villanelle's accent would Kill Me, so I'm just doing her accent on her actual dialogue, not the narrator's voice or her internal thoughts.

Argh. Sorry. Realized partway through recording that I wasn't doing an accent for Konstantin, so it's a bit of a mess. Couldn't make myself re-do all his dialogue and patch it in. Just roll with it, ok? :) Accents are not my strong point (duh). Thank you for your support!

Sorry about the inconsistency of pronunciation on 'Anna'. I had hemmed and hawed on a previous chapter on how to pronounce it, picked one way, then decided in this chapter that I liked it better the other way. Ooopsies. *sheepish look* Thank you for your support!

Reader's Notes
Lots of f-bombs this chapter, if you're sensitive to that kind of thing. But then again, you wouldn't have made it this far if you were. :)
Frozen fingers tonight. Since it's going to get down to 3 degrees overnight, my furnace helpfully decided this was an outstanding time to stop generating heat. Have repair person coming tomorrow, but it is certainly a wee bit nippy now.

Reader's Notes:
1) sorry for the really, dreadfully awful Scottish accent, and posh accent, and well, really, all accents. It is not a strength of mine. Eep.
2) I am fighting a virus of some kind or other that is messing up my throat - so the next chapter will be a few days, probably. I'm trying to finish this podfic before the next season of "Killing Eve" airs, but that will be a pretty brutal pace of releasing chapters. Wish me luck :)
3) thanks so much to those who take the time to kudo -- this is now ranked 11th in my current set of 43 works. Considering the "Killing Eve" fandom is significantly smaller than the Sherlock fandom, that's awesome. You rock!

Again with the delay - my bad. Been sick for the past 2 weeks (and I also struggle with sexytime chapters - I need to be in the right mood for them). Thanks to Chelley for the gentle (and kind) nudge to get me back on track!

Ok, now that I largely have my voice back, I'm going to crank through this as best I can. Still would like to finish before Season 2 airs. I have the next 4 chapters recorded, though they still need to be processed (which takes about 20 minutes per finished minute of recording). Getting there!!
Mucho thanks for comments and kudos! This podfic is now tied for my 9th most popular. Go "Killing Eve" fandom!

Gettin' there. About 75 percent done. Just 10 chapters left, 3 of which I already have recorded.
Seems like every time I update the Killing Eve podfic, I lose what I call an 'all things me' subscriber, which pangs a bit. Sorry Sherlock peeps! I haven't abandoned you forever.

I'm going to release 34 and 35 at the same time, since they feel like 2 parts of a whole to me. NSFW.
Four more to go before it's done. I think I'll be able to finish it off before Season 2 airs. *pant pant pant*

Ta da! I made it! I really wanted to finish this up before Season 2 of the show aired. So I'm chuffed I made it.
Thanks for hanging with me on this one and my horrible accents and whatnot.
