Opportunity for Horror Writers

[cyn]

This from Taylor Kent, the Snarky Avenger:

Taylor Kent AKA The Snarky Avenger (snarkyavenger.com) here.

I am a fan of all of your work and have interviewed many of you for my show as well as review many of your books (stories and such.) I have recently been doing a lot more with the creation of both audio fiction and audio drama, and, thought that interest, I have become a member of a great audio amateur audio (fiction and drama) creation organization call BrokenSea Audio Productions (BSAP)
(Broken Sea.com).

I am writing to you to offer you an opportunity for some of your horror work (short stories, poems or essays) to be a part of the second annual BSAP Halloween podcast event.

Here is a link to last years BSAP Halloween podcast season:
BrokenSea.com/Halloween

I am not one for writing long emails, so here is the deal:

Starting 1 October 2008 we at BSAP would like to have enough audio content produced (Audio Drama, short story and poetry readings, etc) to release 100 new items during October.

Therefore we are asking all of you, if you be willing to give us rights to do readings OR full cast audio drama adaptations of (this is going to be limited due to production pressures of our existing audio shows) versions of a one or two of your short stories, poems or other Halloween/horror themed writings.

This is a great opportunity to reach people with your work that might not have heard of you or seen anything you have published before. So if you are interested let us know by sending an email to me, Taylor Kent (snarkdogg [at]gmail.com or BSAP directly at exec[at]brokensea.com.

Here is the details... Please read them before you agree to anything.

BSAP are not in a position to pay for the use of your material, but you will get full credit for your work and we will add a link to your website or were ever you like to podcast page and this reference link appears in the audio as well.

All BSAP productions are produced by volunteers and no income is derived from any material on the website.

Unless requested otherwise we will use the services of our pool of voice actors to complete readings. If you would like to do the a reading of your work yourself and have it included we would be happy to work with you.

The same applies to podsafe music used in each production.

All Brokensea audio files are produced under a Creative Commons License (can be freely distributed provided credits are intact and material is not sold). All materials remain the property of the author or copyright holder. Brokensea will only hold the audio file content under CC Licensing

All audio files will remain freely available on our website and via the BSAP iTunes feeds.

We also have available several short audio promos for the BSAP Halloween Season (30 seconds to 1 minute in length). Perfect for Myspace pages, and other promotional sites (available on request).
