Thanks guys,
I'm keen to collaborate with writers.

The finished audio book would be uploaded on Audible, Google play books, Kobo ETC. Some audio books can be awesome with sound effects and sound design or musical themes, long as the engineer knows what they're doing.

Hi Alex.
I'm an English actor and writer,
I've recently published a Sci-fi adventure on Amazon: 'The Kalgarav Chronicles', and have recorded several projects for People Talk, an online source of short stories and documentaries - here's a link: http://peopletalk.libsyn.com/girl-on-the-torture-wheel-by-jefferson-ames I have various short film scripts, a couple of which I have made into films and am working on a Sci-fi comedy with an environmental theme feature script at the moment. We live near Paris at the moment but I come over to UK regularly and am free to come whenever I want. If you would like to see any material just let me know. All the best with everything. Malcolm.

5 years, 12 months ago - nanc cohen

hello. are you interested in screenplays that have not been produced? i have a Scottish romp that got quite close... i've done radio soap operas and i think it could lend itself to great audio story telling...of course, I'm biased.

5 years, 12 months ago - Alex Akakpo

Thanks Guy's, Malcom, Nancy, and everyone else who have been emailing writing works through.

Huge help.

Fiction audio books sell quite well, after Mystery, Thriller, and Suspense on Audible. I'm open to other genre's, long as the Author knows their audience.

It's good to know, some scripts / stories just won't work as audio books or Audio plays, as they're just too visual.

so short stories, Plays, Scripts, or Novels that are very aural would be ideal for recording in the studio.
I'm currently using V/O's to record the audio books with, but do let me know if you'd rather dub the voice yourselves.

thanks again,

Alexakakhpo@gmail.com

Hi I am going to put this forward and see if I could collaborate with someone who knows?. I have been writing some small play's and monologues that are quite powerful.

5 years, 9 months ago - Alex Akakpo

Hey,

Your Monologue and play project sounds interesting. I'm still looking to collaborate with writers with finished works to transform in to, Audio books, plays, monologues, or scripts.

You can find one of my recent audio reels at:

Hi, Alex,
I a bit behind the curve.
But have two published novels, a literary mystery and a romantic thriller that I was going to convert to audiobooks, but I've got so many other writing projects I"m catching up on (as you can tell by the delayed response to your post).
Let me know if either of them look interesting.

Hi Alex,
Interestingly, I do have a podcast of a prequel series pieced together with the cast from my stage play in 2019. The cast of eight (4 male and 4 female) have worked together on the stage production and the radio sitcom and I know that all or some of them would be happy to work on projects if you're interested. If yes, drop me a message to my email bob.eckhard@gmx.co.uk and I'll forward Tom's contact details who will be your go to person (if interested?) Thanks, Bob

HI, Alex,
I can tell you've been inundated by the Writer Swarm [cue TWILIGHT ZONE music].
Just published my romantic thriller, the perfect airplane / beach book, which came out March 15th, the same week all the beaches in the world were closed and most of the airplanes grounded.
A woman falls in love with a man about to be assassinated, and concocts a meshuganeh scheme to save his life, which goes spectacularly awry.
I've been standing in line in festivals, speaking and enough people have approached and said that I have a unique voice and should do voice-overs, but I'm essentially a writer and just want to do an audiobook of my novel.
What's your mailing address, and I'll send you a copy.
Sending you all the best,
Lynwood Shiva Sawyer
