I have asked this question of some of you a while back and I know that a number of you said you would participate. Well, I'm ready to start working on podcasts again. I was going to have a big ole podcast about the fundamentals of writing etc... but nah. Per kleinbl00's advice I want to ask one pointed question:
Why Do You Write?
Participating is easy, you simply record yourself saying the following:
Hi, this is (username example humanodon) of Hubski
Then record yourself reading the question:
Why do I write?
Then record yourself giving the answer, which ideally would start out:
I write because. Or -I write....
Try and keep your answer to this question under 2 minutes. Realize that I will be editing and mixing out all the "ums", and "coughs" etc. Also, I may shorten your answer or splice it in with someone elses to help construct a more succinct narrative.
I always shoot for these things to be under 5 minutes, but inevitably they end up being longer.
In your answer, the more personal and specific it is to you, the more interesting it will be. I hope to have a number of participants.
If you are interested, you can PM me and I'll send you the email address. Just record your voice and send over an MP3 or an audio file. Most people just use the "voice memo" application on their iphones.
Thanks in advance. Here are some writers I think may be interested:
kleinbl00, maynard, _refugee_, lil, onehunna, Becoming_Betty, Floatbox, AshShields, cW, theadvancedapes, insomniasexx, ChrisShann, humanodon, louderwords,
There are undoubtably people I have forgotten to tag in here. In fact as I write this I'm reminded of b_b who is a great writer and a friend IRL, so don't feel offended if I've forgotten you. Please let me know, all are welcome!
If you've not heard any past podcasts, you can hear/view them here: #tngpodcast. My personal favorite is Space. If we are really lucky, steve will put the "Why Do You Write?" podcast to video.
Look forward to hearing from you
