The Word Count Episode 47 OPEN for Submissions!
xadm
Back in the saddle, Ready to rock ‘n roll with a new Word Count Podcast!
As we continue our march toward the seminal Episode 50 I’m soliciting ideas for the big show…so send me your thoughts on that. Should it be a “Best of?” Should we include Author interviews? Should everyone record their stories naked (Like I always do)? Who knows…email me or tweet me.
In the meantime, for those unfamiliar with the show…
The Word Count Podcast is truly one of my joys. I direct, produce, write and host the show—and also come up with the various themes our writers—The “Word Count Irregulars”—use to create unique and brilliant stories.
All for the listener and lovers of great storytelling.
There are no endorsements…no paid stories. It’s all done for the love of the written word. And downloads are always free. Always.
The only thing I ask is a little help via social media to point folks at the show.
To start listening go to either my Libsyn Page or to iTunes:
There are forty-six shows available right now!
But in the meantime…Episode 47. We are back to our three word prompts:
Theater. Tourist. Savory.
THE WORD COUNT EPISODE 45

DEADLINE: I must receive your submission by FRIDAY 1 MAY 2015 by MIDNIGHT Eastern time.
THE DETAILS: The work must be an original work based on the key words:
“Theater, Tourist, Savory”
Do NOT exceed SEVEN minutes.
As this is a podcast, I need to receive a file of YOU, a friend or multiple friends reading (singing or otherwise performing) your work. MP3 FORMAT ONLY, and please attach your MP3 file to an e-mail or contact me for a Dropbox link.
Your submission MUST also contain the following:

Send your file to me@rbwood.com (or via the dropbox link I can provide) by 1 May 2015. You can also e-mail me with questions beforehand. I do reserve the right NOT to post your submission, but will communicate that to you should it be the case. I add the ‘Explicit’ tag to the ‘cast, so if your story uses adult themes or language that’s ok—but it should be necessary for the story.
I’ll only be accepting SEVEN stories this time—so get moving!
Peace
