I have not thanked you due to my shame; I’m in rehad and you have helped me sleep with peace each night. I’m blessed to have discovered you and your stories. Normalizes this path toward wellness im on. Namaste Simon
Do not be ashamed that you have sought out help. Be proud that you have done so. It takes a lot of courage and bravery. I for one are proud of you and hope you continue to get better. Sending love and prayers to you. ❤
Simon has become one of my favorite readers now. What a find. Talented guy, and a terrific reader. You had me at Conan Doyle though. Okay, yes, I love Agatha Christie too. I've loved them since I was a kid growing up in California in the 70's. I still love them both.
I am 'revisiting' all the stories on your lovely channel. I have moderate insomnia, & your wonderful narration is keeping me company in the wee small hours. I must say that there's been more than one occasion, your narration being of such quality, that I have found myself pulling the duvet tighter round my shoulders & feeling the same cold, prickling fear as experienced by many of the characters. There's no chance of me being lulled to sleep whilst listening! Thank you Simon. 😊
my goodness! i’ve been listening to you for hours to keep me company. i am really impressed by how good an actor/reader you are - characters, emotions, action of scenes (calm, agitated, excited, unhappiness, fear, funniness, love, friendship), and basic feeling for each author. . . thank you so much. enjoy the spring :) 🌷🥂
Thank you Alexa, I'm touched by your kind comments! So glad to know you've been enjoying the stories. I hope you enjoy the spring too (still waiting for the warmer weather to arrive where I am, unfortunately.....)
@@BitesizedAudio I listen to these stories BECAUSE you are narrating, quite possibly the best out there! I think I LIVE to hear Cain and Able by ……… I can’t remember but his style of writing is a glove to your hand, perfect fit! I’ll pop back with the author when I remember!
I've been searching if you have read 'the monkey's paw' yet. I know you would bring such Terror into that classic tale. I read it as a 8th grade assignment, but I still remember how shocking it was.
@@BitesizedAudio it is my pleasure. Its nice to listen to some fresh stories and how u read and voice the characters are very calming😊 i do appreciate it very much!❤
Hello Rose. Yes of course. The home page for the channel can be found at: th-cam.com/users/BitesizedAudioClassics If you want to see all the stories I've uploaded, that's easiest to see at this link: th-cam.com/users/BitesizedAudioClassicsvideos Or to see the playlists, with stories grouped by category, there's this link: th-cam.com/users/BitesizedAudioClassicsplaylists I do hope that's helpful. Best wishes
I really, really wish you would do Le Fanu (e.g., Carmilla, The Haunted Baronet, the Judge stories etc). Better writer than Doyle by far, and oddly lacking in the generally available repertoire as yet. You could truly do them justice!
Thank you. I have actually already done a couple of Le Fanu stories - you can find them in the Victorian Ghost Stories playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLi95qAoufCZISCGdeBUtYxynNFtZCeRrv.html I certainly plan to do more in the future
@Graham sims It's on my list, a couple of people have already requested it! Can't promise how soon I'll get around to it as I've got quite a long request list now, but I certainly plan to do several more Le Fanu in the months ahead. Thanks for the suggestion!
I feel like the story kind of falls apart at the end. It seems like Doyle had forgotten by the end of the story that the frame story of the text itself is supposed to be a record made available to the public by Watson. So Watson has just revealed the perpetrator and the fact that he and Holmes have protected a criminal from facing justice to everyone even if it is years later.
Possible SPOILER reply... I suppose we might suppose he disappeared from the scene so successfully that it would be unlikely anyone could trace him, or that he was known to have died n the intervening period, but this was - quite oddly! - not stated: I forgot how the story ended and was thinking Watson would probably tell us Holmes had just learnt that he had died and therefore encouraged him to tell the true facts.
People cannot be dead with "an expression of horror" on their faces. That's nonsense. Muscles relax and go limp when death occurs, including facial muscles.
Volume 2 of William Baring-Gould's Annotated Sherlock Holmes (as scanned among 'Texts to Borrow' in the Internet Archive) has some interesting discussion: even without borrowing, you can search for the word radix!

Same, I think it’s the most intimate thing you can do for someone, a one way exchange and vital for those who don’t see!

Totally love the stories; your voice is perfect for the narrations. The SH stories are the best!!
I remember reading this one a few years ago; listening to it is a completely different experience! Thank you for another excellent narration!
You are such a wonderful narrator, your voice just melts into my mind and the stories unravel so smoothly, what and incredible talent you have Thanks
Thank you for such a lovely comment! Best wishes to you
I adore the English accent! American narrators tend to put me to sleep and have a ho-hum rhythm. I read silently so I sound great! LOL
Splendidly narrated - thank you very much!
Oh, how I love the Sherlock Holmes stories! Thank you very much 😊. I am off to listen to a couple more!
Excellent, Bitesiize Audios Best narration and enumerated perfectly, made the well written story come to life. Sir Conan Doyal. Genius
Excellent story! Excellent narration!! Thank you!
The love of money (in this case) definitely... is the (ROOT) of all EVIL
I've been searching if you have read
'the monkey's paw' yet. I know you would bring such Terror into that classic tale. I read it as a 8th grade assignment, but I still remember how shocking it was.
I love the narration of these stories!
Thanks Julie, appreciated!

Thanks. Enjoyed
Glad to know that, thanks for listening
Goodie for me! I came across more Sherlock Holmes to listen to.
Isn't the reader Mr. Peabody from Fractured Fairy Tales?
@T Z I honestly believed that but the narrator denies it here: th-cam.com/video/x4DbVvyukPE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=BitesizedAudioClassics
Can you add a link to your channel page? I’m not that good with these things and it would be a big help…Thank you

@@BitesizedAudio Absolutely, I noticed these. But the longer ones would give you (I think and hope) far more scope for your fantastic acting...
@@BitesizedAudio "Green Tea" is my favourite Le Fanu tale. Any chance of a reading, sir?

Silly Comment.

You have not heard of the rictus sardonicus? Isn't that a death grimace?
It's called 'creative license ' for a reason. Stop being so critical and enjoy!
The Ubangi country is the original Wakanda and Zumunda. 😂
