That makes sense. I only made the Allen Foley association for some bizarre reason.

No I meant Foley, sound effects type stuff.

Hosting - of course. D’oh. Might be ways around that depending on how tightly you wanted to hold on to the rights… swings and roundabouts though.

Did you mean Firstly?

Foley, I’d want it to be more than just somebody reading the thing. Hosting, I assume, would be another issue. It all adds up really.

Really?

What costs are we talking about?

There’s be a lot of man hours for someone to record, edit, upload, maintain and market but you could do all that yourself.

Then you have possibly the cost of some recording equipment or rental of - but I’d say you could do this with minidisc and good mic…

Then you have, potentially, the cost of a reader..

Am I missing anything?

First person I asked. The cost of doing it to the standard I’d want could be prohibitive but it’s certainly worth looking at.

Could work really well, you’d have to figure out the mechanics for getting maximum exposure…

I haven’t looked into podcasts enough, but Tom R should have a few leads…

I was actually thinking about doing Death’s New Lease On Life as a podcast/audio book. Figured it might be a nice format to get attention but never quite convinced myself it was worthwhile. Perfect delivery method for radio plays though.

No bother, and yeah, you’re perfect candidates…
