This post is due to many people wanting to Create the voice files for The Short Stories I create which revolves on Dystopian Futures, Humanity and many other ideas. This is the Discord group keep in mind it is still in RAW format.

Dystopian Futures - Discord Group


I am looking for voice talent see post below for more details.

I would like to make some AudioBooks out of them, I am looking for people who are very great at reading with personality and are able to give the listener a sense of being part of the book.

I am not looking for experienced Voice Over talent I am looking for Steemians that are English speakers, character actor and improv artist. A smooth, professional and polished vocal style. That are capable of delivering recorded material to me in mp3, m4a, wav, or aiff formats.


If you are able and willing to provide I will pay 5 SBD per AudioClip of the story done, please keep in mind the Stories are very unique and should require a unique voice. They are between 500-800 words, I currently have about a dozen short stores on steemit and will continue to write more, thus give more opportunities to people that want to earn and help out.

Some things I am looking for

  • Voice must be dark, with emotion
  • Must understand this is a dystopian setting
  • Able to make the listener be part of the story
  • Above 55 Rep just means you know how to get around here and you are somewhat active.

Hello, We are working on the AudioBook posts set up for the winners.

Turns out we have chosen two winners instead of 1.
Winners will be announced real soon.

Now that's a great idea! I've just rejoined Steemit and plan to use it to post my crappy flash fiction, so I guess I'll be joining this one!

That sounds pretty amazing, lets get those fictions going.

Thank you for your submission.

No offense, but how do we know you won't abandon this contest like you did your earlier one? I have tried to contact you several times... Remember this one? https://steemit.com/contest/@chronocrypto/chronocrypto-introduces-a-very-short-story-contest-2nd-contest

What makes you think I abandoned it? Winners will be announced and payed this friday.

The post ended 9 days ago, so I guess I thought it would have been judged earlier. Anyway, sorry for the misunderstanding. Thanks.

No perfectly fine, been busy with outside situations.
Rest assured contest winners will be announced.

I already post my writing on my page, and don't want to repost the same thing more than once a year if I can help it. Can I just link you to the stories I want to submit and pay the fee, rather than reposting them on my own page?

Of course.

really really cool post

Can stories be below 500 words? As in, is 500 the max or the target.

@chronocrypto

Must be 500 target.

It looks like fun, I just have to fine-tune some details with the translation and I'll be inside. I think we'll have a great time.

Transferred fee for this post. Good luck to all contestants.

Just sent my 2 sbd for the story https://steemit.com/story/@candidfolly/shudder-softly. Thanks!

Am I too late? Just found this and whipped something up I'm kind of liking :)
