Ahahah, that was even more fun than when I read it myself. I am totally in favor of the idea of audio slash (and I hadn't forgotten, because the comments on that post inspired me to investigate a bunch of text-to-speech software, but, uh, getting it to pronounce everything correctly is probably almost as much work as recording something myself). And yeah, surprising how long it takes to read 7000 words, huh? Then again, 70000 words is not an especially long novel, and unabridged audio books or not particularly long novels tend to be in the general neighborhood of 6 hours...
