Comments on: A Handful of Dates http://www.miettecast.com/2008/03/20/a-handful-of-dates/ Lay yourself down to sleep with the soothing soporific of Miette's purr as she reads you the world's greatest short stories and delivers them podcasterly.

I'm slowly working my way back through your archives and found a glitch with this otherwise fine story and, of course, great reading: the actual story is about 16 minutes, but instead of fading out in normal delightful fashion, 10 disconnected minutes of "In a Hole" has somehow attached itself. I'm sure I'm not the only one who keeps favorites to listen to again and would be happy to have a "fixed" version of this one, if you happen to see this and it happens to be something easy to do. On that note--you really should find a way to let your appreciative listeners send you donations. It's totally reasonable: you are giving us something we value highly. There's no reason it should compromise anything you do (or don't do). Miette, you’re wonderful.

I hope the fellow readers on projects you've helped with are almost as good as you are. You’ve never mentioned you do the occasional reading for librivox.

Great move. I love the new links area to find out about each author and buy their books. Great move.

And you managed to take care of both at the same time with a great story. More more more! Actually, you’ve been a little lacking in African literature and literature from the Arab speaking world.
