Sylvia's put together a list of the voice posts, which she's agreed to update as more recordings show up so if you aren't on the list yet, just let her know in the comments!
These are the voices she's found so far:
Okay. I'm ready to go.: Here are ours...
The 70's come alive. Or not...
Corner Kick: And now I completely lose your respect for all time
Yeah, well, I did a ton of slushily romantic goopy crap poetry when I was courting Mrs. Pete back in college. I was 21, and today I am so mortified by the squooshy gooshy lovey-dovey drivel I produced that I can't believe it actually worked.
Whittering On...: Romancectomy.
Normally I duck behind the parapet when these are going on because I have an unerring ability to transform into a stuttering eejit when asked to read aloud. However I've realised that even I couldn't mess up this one
McKoala Days: Alluring?
Here's my attempt - Burns, unromanticized. (Less than a minute long - that's how long it took to destroy our national poet...)
In Search of Giants: Flat Affect Romantica
I have the plague (or its second cousin once removed which still reduces grown people to whiny little snot heaps) and my voice sounds like more grotesque version of Maxine's.
Underneath the Bridge: I'ma Get Romantic On Your Ass
Last time she had us reading something boring in a sexy voice, and I apologize to those who were hospitalized from swoon related injuries. (Send me the bill.) This time it's all flipped around and we're supposed to read something slushily romantic in a completely unromantic manner. I know. I know. You're thinking: Blogless how could the sweet dulcet sounds of your voice ever be construed as anything but romantic?
EE's Stuff: Sweetness
A minion commented:
That voice is a total passion killer. Brilliant.
Can’t Backspace » I’m tired of carrying your damn heart
I'm so sorry, Mr Cummings!
The weblog of the one true paca: The anti-valentine
If you do find this romantic, I have a couple friends I can hook you up with, though you may wish to meet them wearing battle armor.
fairyhedgehog: Love Hurts
There is nothing that you wouldn't want your kiddies to hear, except possibly for the doomladen, apathetic and yet irritable tone of voice.
AbyssWinksBack: Bring On The Shakey, Bring On The Decibels
Once again, it’s time to venture into the fun-packed world of laryngial flexion action — thankfully, minus the porn stars.
Freddie's Cafe: How Not to Read a Love Poem
"And this one time, at band camp . . . . ?"
Short Stuff: Voice and Quilt
This is truly non-romantic and only an approximation of my voice*.
*Abject apologies to Willy.
If your recording isn't in this list, please leave a link in the comments and it'll get added asap!

I know Freddie's is in progress and I think Sarah is still planning to do something - anyone else?
I'm desperately nervous that I might miss someone!
Mine just went up. : )
Thanks for doing this, Sylvia!!!
So far I haven't been able to listen to Robin/JB's, pjd's, and paca's. Hopefully I'll be able to get them later.
Oh, Sylvia. EE has his on as well. The link is under the post that says 'put a note here when yours is up'.
Thanks for making this list. It's good to have them all linked in one place.
*sigh* I am going to have to make time to listen to them all.
Am actually cutting things out of my life at the moment. I seem to have no time, well, just no time. Crappy PMS (peri-menopause) hormones don't help with that either.
Hopefully next time I will be able to deliver. Didn't even get a chance to do that luscious EE exercise. Damn.
After all that whining...
Mine's here.
Just ran through the gamut! So, so sorry not to leave individual comments, but it came down to either listen to everybody's or write comments. I chose to listen and I'm so glad I did. Between these voices and EE's exercises I'm off romance now for another year. Thank you all ;o)
Funny how most everyone chose just short pieces this time. Except EE, but everything he does is such a production.
Loved the gimmicks many of you had to employ to turn your yummy romantic selves into something you're so not. A perfect red rose to each of you! @}--;--
I think I got to them all. I tried to leave comments on each so if you didn't get a comment from me, I am truly sorry I missed yours somehow.
These were great fun!
Hey, Sarah! Yay!!!
I'm going to have a listen, and thanks, Sylvia, for the great and ongoing post work, girl!
