Short Story Radio: internet radio station showcasing new fiction online.

Found by Jan ....

Coming soon to an Internet link near you …………

Have you come across www.shortstoryradio.com which is an internet radio station that shortly will showcase new fiction online? It’s a chance for Writers to have their work professionally broadcast and made available to the widest audience possible recorded by professional voice actors. Stories must be written in English,


Writers who submit a story for consideration are offered their own web page, which can contain a short biography and also an excerpt from the story they submitted for consideration in either Word™ or PDF format.

Catch - there is a story submission fee! But in order to launch with a selection of quality stories already available, they are asking writers to submit a story for consideration free of charge.

From these they choose ten - fifteen stories which will be recorded and broadcast from the site's launch date. Writers who are interested in submitting a story for our launch should contact Ian at editor@shortstoryradio.com for further information.

Writers of any nationality are welcome to submit a story, but the story must be written in English. There is no restriction on period or style but the story must be fictional.

Maximum 3,000 words. Stories should not contain expletives or content of an overtly sexual or violent nature.

Stories submitted for consideration must not have been published or broadcast previously and must be original pieces of work written by the writer who has submitted the story.

You will receive email confirmation once your story has been received, but only writers whose stories are accepted for broadcast will be notified. No further correspondence will be entered into once work has been submitted. If you do not hear from us within 4 weeks of submitting your story please assume that on this occasion we have chosen not to accept your story.

Writers may submit only one short story at a time, but are free to submit up to ten short stories in any six month period.

Stories cannot be altered or changed after they have been submitted.

Unfortunately we are not able to offer feedback or a critique of stories submitted to us.

You retain the copyright to your submitted story, regardless of whether or not it is chosen for broadcast. Copyright of the recording of broadcast stories remains with Wyndham Granite Communications, who have the right to broadcast the recording of each story on shortstoryradio.com for a period of six months. After this period any further broadcast or use of the recording of a story can only be made by prior arrangement and with express permission of the writer and voice actor.

....Thanks Jan.
