Title: Podcastle
Post by: Jen on June 23, 2010, 10:58:12 AM
Hi everyone. Just wanted to let you know I've been asked to read a flash fiction story for Podcastle. If you've never heard of Podcastle, it's a WONDERFUL podcast that features fantasy short stories. They invite podcasters to read the stories. I contacted them last year to get my name on the list for consideration and they recently said they thought this story is one I should read. I don't think I can tell you the name of the story because it's either a finalist or winner in their flash fiction competition—I'm not sure if they have announced the winners yet.

I really liked it...it sounded like the impassioned speech of female freedom fighter. The writing is very poetic. They said they liked the way I read it. I'll let you know if and when it will be released. :)

Check out Podcastle in the mean time. Then you should also check out the other podcasts in their family: Escape Pod and Pseudopod

I think this is a go. The new "managers" of Podcastle said they really liked my reading. I guess I'll know when it will air when it actually is put in their feed :D

Podcastle is a awesome place for sci fi fantasy stories. I managed to grab a job of reading a bit of flash fiction for them (as story lasting no more than 3 mins ). Anyway its now up on their website. Have a listen and let me know what you think.
