Werewolf Week: In Sickness and in Health

I set In Sickness and in Health in Hungary, although the only evidence of that are people walking around named Hristo and Nadia. Jeff and I wrote most of these before the podcasting idea for them was firm, but still with some notion that if I was to read this aloud, I might need access to a Hungarian accent. And an accent different from a German one, or a Russian one, or a Borat.

I've skipped it entirely. From my voice, Hristo and Nadio could be living in Hoboken. Their locaiton doesn't matter to the story, which is partially why I threw it over to a country I knew little about, but knew had enough people there to contain a possible werewolf. I might continue that: there's plenty more international stories in the pipeline, and I don't want to sound like Boris Badanoff or Apu for all these readings. - Sean
