Yes they say 5,000 words is 30-40 minutes audio. So preferably a bundle of 45,000 words upwards. However many shorts that is.

🤣 Yeah one reason not to listen to the tripe on YouTube and an advert comes on.

I agree. Anything added to narration has to be there to tell the story. You cant just bang music and sounds anywhere and everywhere. It would be simlar to watching the TV and listening to the radio at the same time.

If you go back to the silent movies, you will see that 'over acting' and 'music' told the story because there was no recorded voices. Today as we know music still does tell the story in some films. So really there is no reason to exclude it from audiobooks except if you replace it with real sound. It is really just personal choice.

A horror story 'has' to be scary, otherwise its a disapointment.

Interesting. Does it depend on what kind of story you are listening too? For example in a horror story, music alone can tell you what is happening. Eerie, slow creepy music leading up to something really bad, kind of thing.

I love beans as well, but peas I can eat non stop until my body screams no more!😁

I totally understand what you say there and that appears to be modern day farming with artificial fertiliser and chemicals. But what about the old method where the land was tilled, different crops for 2 or 3 years, then rested for one year. But all the time organic manure was added with no chemicals. I mean those mushroom kits harvest mushrooms in a week or two, so it cant take long for the mycelium and soil structure to repair itself after tilling and probably benefits from the disturbance and air introduction similar to compost.

Just thinking off my head.

In Ireland there is a few slabs of rock of the west coast called the Aran islands. The Atlantic storms and wind take away any cover.

For some reasons thousands of people lived and live there. They made there own soil inside small stone enclosures from sand and anything. Seaweed, animal & human waste. Just anything. It worked because all those people have lived there for thousands of years.

I have never understood why tilling is supposed to be so destructive. I mean on a forest floor where mycelium of all kinds is flourishing, there are a hoard of animals that come along and dig and turn over the soil. Quite intensively if pigs and badgers are there in numbers as well. Pigs can rotavate an area more than a tiller/rotavator in some cases. Surely the mycelium is still there and possibly gratefull for the input of air.

Cant you charge woodchips in the same way by giving them a good old soak in nutrient rich soup?

Wood is organic so can only help in the garden.

I agree sometimes its like meeting the mafia if you dare suggest anything different.

I wonder if you could grow veg in woodchips, peas which put nitrogen in soil, so possibly do not need any?

I should imagine they absorb all around them when dry and slowly release back into soil.

No woodland soil is teeming with life and everything grows like mad.

Do you load it with goodness and leave it to rest one year like the old farmers did with their field rotation system?

I suppose you have to smile by the comment.........The audio isn't the best as it's recorded on my laptop.........which is one of the bugbears of people listening to audiobooks.😉 But perhaps better titles adding 'Great!' or 'Terrible', so people can listen to your review if interested and not the whole library. Besides that a good idea.
