Ok, wrote the intro and also have a way to upload mp3 for those who would like to record in their own voice. If recording in your own voice, only read the poem or story. No title or name. This will be added to the introduction of the episode. Once it's all figured out a email will be sent. Once a submission is sent and If accepted, I would then send a link to upload the audio for review.

Old man is hard of hearing, so I'd by helped by closed captions. If there is dialogue, could you have two voices? When I did a reading editor provided female voice, and I did narration and male voice.

The Haven, a humor publication, has a listen option which must be automated. It is available as soon as a story is loaded. The voice is clear, but somewhat robotic. I don't know if you have any options like that or would be interested.

Thanks for what I call Written Tales 2.0.

As long as I can record my work in my own voice, I’m in!

Excellent idea. Love the energy here.

I think it's an excellent idea. As a reader, I'd love to hear others voice their work and, as a poet, I welcome the chance to read and be heard.

I think this is a great idea – I have been posting my EDEN by FREI project as a podcast to Anchor and would be happy to contribute content to this.

Audible just goes from strength to strength, so this is a great idea. It would enhance the offering, certainly. If you have the time, then go for it!

Kevin, Love your energy to push more ideas and content! It's a lot of work for you to do this weekly gig. And given today's world is so distracted and pressed for concentration, do you have a certain angle or theme/mission/intention that you'd like to pursue to give readers/presenters more focus or purpose in what we would deliver for you? And, if there is a specific theme or intention, this could help all of us writers to better share your links and promote WT if we can market it to audiences to help them. Food for thought. Questions?

I don’t do podcasts but I do poetry readings. Does that help. I’m sure people will love listening to short audio tracks. As would I.

yes. spoken word speaks to me. I have been involved locally with ROC Spoken Word (google them) for 5 years and have found it exciting, intergenerational, brilliant. They have done demand over the Pandemic and I show up virtually even when I am not performing because it is exciting.
