400 Words a Horror

400 Words A Horror is a bi-weekly horror-themed anthology podcast by audio drama enthusiasts who want to get started in the audio drama world as creators! We are a group of friends who dream of making our own audio dramas some day, but had no idea how to go about it. They always say, practice makes perfect, so we rounded up a few of our friends and got to work! Our goal is to learn the "how" behind audio drama creation. Co-run by Gem and Lys, 400 Words A Horror allows us the space to have fun, spook up a little, experience, experiment, and learn the ins and outs of audio drama creation! This is a learning experience for all of us so, any feedback - as long as it is constructive - is more than appreciated. Feel free to drop us a message on any of our socials! If you want to stay anonymous, our Tumblr ask box awaits you. Sooo... why the name "400 Words A Horror"?Well, the idea came to Gem while practicing with the Pratchett method called ‘400 words a day.’ The goal is to write a story a day in at least 400 words (ahem... you know, hence the name) to practice and improve on one's own writing. As a result, all of our stories vary in length and topic from episode to episode! We usually have a loose theme for the week and have fun exploring it together! How do I get involved?When we need or want to work with new people, we will announce it on our socials. In the mean time, follow us on Tumblr, Twitter and BlueSky @400WordsAHorror, join our Discord and hone your skills with us! We think we're pretty cool so if you wanna see how we're doing and what we're up to, those are the best places! Links are below! If you like what we do, following and sharing the show is one of the best ways you can support us. It's crazy how far word or mouth or a kind review can go. And, of course, supporting us here on Patreon is also incredibly helpful! ;D (pssst, we also have Ko-fi if a one time donation is better for you than a subscription) Cast and Crew Socials:Gem Aydin: Twitter, Tumblr, BlueSky Lyssa Jay: Linktree,Twitter, BlueSky Hosted on Acast.
