Xylia Radio Play?

I know the voice contest is coming to a close, but Barb's little hint of having the winner asked to voice in a possible trailer got me thinking...

Why not a radio play for Xylia?

I'm familiar with another popular comic called Red String (I'm sure some of you out there heard about/read it :3 ), and they have a fan made radio play where voice actors bring the comic to life with well.. Their voice. :D

It seems a tiny bit unfair for those who don't win the grand prize and feel left out from all their efforts (NOT saying that the contest is negative in ANY WAY), so perhaps Xylia could try out a similar thing like Red String?

I'd love personally to participate in this. It looks like a load of fun :D; ▶ Reply to This

Consider yourself in - I 'll post parts once I get the whole thing written. About half to go yet.

And thanks - when I hit a slump, as happens partway through, often enough, kind words perk me back up and keep me going. The same with Barb too, so be sure to tell her the three favorite things you like abut Xylia Tales!

And it's been an interesting challenge, stitching such diverse scenes together into one script, let me tell you!
*wry grin* I wish I could give everybody lots more lines. But the goal is to keep it short enough to be manageable, give it something at least vaguely resembling a plot, and give everybody at least one turn to say their part, in this lovely absurdity. In that, I think I will succeed. :)

Big thanks to Barb for letting me do this - it's writing therapy combined with fun, for me. *wry grin*

Thanks,
