Lost my job recently and it's been rough out there. I'm a podcast editor, sound designer, and VA trying to build my portfolio. Let me craft your fiction or nonfiction audio into its best shape. I'd love to try my hand at a TTRPG!
I've written and directed for the award-winning audio drama Someone Dies In This Elevator and have my own in the works.
Both parts of my Debut folk horror audio drama are now available to listen to! Enter a world immersed in Shropshire Folklore, ruled by Devil Himself. There's something very strange afoot up the stiperstones!
Over on Podvibes, the #Mastodon instance for #FictionPodcast creators, I'm offering up small tips to help folks, shows, and production houses get the most out of their time on the #Fediverse.
It's all about the cultivation, I think. So if you know any #AudioDrama or #AudioFiction peeps who are looking to get started in our post-Big Centralized Social world, tell them about that instance, would you?
Have you listened to my folk horror audio drama, the best of men yet? Set in a landscape ruled by the Devil Himself, It's full of Shropshire folklore, wonderful acting, and is brilliantly produced by Alternative Stories and Fake Realities -
For the next 30 days, wherever you are in the world, you can now download for free my BBC radio drama Something in the Water.
It’s about a sceptic scientist presenter who takes his family to a small, isolated, community who think they have a monster in their lake. Of course they don’t. Do they?
Season 1 takes place on and around underwater platforms, and season 2 (episode 2 just released) takes place on a derelict spaceship in a decaying orbit. Definitely low-pressure scenarios!
Building something new in the #podcasting space is still hard. Especially when that "something new" is super niche and when initial moves that seemed right at the time were a disaster.
Yeah. Hard.
Which is why I enjoyed this interview about Apollo, a #FictionPodcast app I've been a fan of since inception. Well, it's more the team and concept I'm a fan of while they try to smooth out the rough waters.
It's officially 1 year since 'The Best of Men' was released! I've been blown away by the love and support for this, my little folk horror. Thank you all! And if you've still not listened, you can find it here

If you're looking for some #Halloween audio treats, a while back I had the pleasure of being the narrator for a broadcast of Dennis Etchison's legendary unproduced supernatural take on Michael Myers. (The story behind the broadcast follows below, a story in itself!)

Looking for a new podcast? CALLING DARKNESS is a female-led horror comedy about six girls, one book, and a demon from hell. What should've been a relatively uneventful acting seminar quickly goes off the rails when the attendees accidentally summon a demon overlord through the power of Danish poetry. Season 1 is available wherever you listen to your podcasts! Co-written by me and starring Kate Siegel as our mysterious narrator 😈 #horror#comedy#podcast#AudioDrama https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/SBP6479223222?selected=SBP2186290389
Meegan May and Lauren Anderson discuss their sci-fi comedy Starship Q Star, the importance of friction in comedy, their love of Star Trek, the freedom of writing Queer characters with flaws, and balancing the story you want to tell with the story that will sell.

Looking for a voice actor/narrator for an audiobook production. I need a woman with a low voice and a US accent. This is a paid project. No audio editing needed. I've got a team for that already.

So, uhhhhh...y'all ever listen to an actual play show and get so invested in one of the NPCs that you pitch the show a scripted audio drama about her backstory with her wife...and they say yes?
jazz hands Auditions are now open for No Normal Life, a spinoff of the Monster Of The Week actual play The Critshow! This is the project I've been working on/vagueposting about for MONTHS now, and I'm super excited to be getting to the next stage.
No Normal Life is a supernatural monster-hunting romance set in 1991. Anastacia's just received a divine mission: protect the Chosen One, Lana King, from all monsters, minions, and masterminds seeking to do her harm. But Lana? Not just some girl with visions, a magic spear, and a smart mouth. She's also...pretty cute.
