Submissions are now OPEN for The Word Count Holiday Podcast!
What…no poll to decide the theme, R.B.?
Not this time, folks.
The theme is “A Holiday Story.”
You want to write a ghost story a la A Christmas Carol? Go for it! An erotic tale of lovers reuniting for a Chanukah tryst? Make it happen! A piece about a Red Ryder bb-gun (you’ll shot your eye out!)? –bring it on, says I!
Make up your own theme and tell the listeners the story you WANT to tell for the holiday.
Submission guidelines and dates below.
Go. Be creative. Wake me when you’re done.
Peace.
