A new week of the author reading contest!!
A new week and a new feature
Some of you have been wonderful supporters of this contest and participated every week. We think that deserves something extra. For the month of June, if you participate in every week with an entry, you will get 1 SBi for each week at the end of the month. Call it loyalty points, freewritehouse madness or whatever you want. But do a reading every week :)
The most wonderful thing about this contest that we are in cooperation with OneLoveDTube! Two communities working together is always better than everyone doing their own thing.
The How Too of an Author Reading
First, you have to write your story. You can use a freewrite or a different story. It has to be your own writing.
Rewrite and edit your story to your heart’s content. You also have no length constrictions - it is entirely up to you.
Read and record your story on video.
Here are some hints:
- Practicing your reading might be a good thing.
- Choose a quiet environment to do your reading. Remember that AC units, heaters, dishwashers and such can be very disturbing in the background.
- Check out the acoustics of the room - bare walls are not a good thing for audio.
- If you are outside, make sure that the background noises fit into your story.
- Get a tripod or something to stabilize your camera/phone.
- Use a microphone if you can. A simple headphone with microphone can work well.
- Do a test first and check your sound, background and so forth.
- If you don’t want to show yourself reading the story, make sure that you have permission to use all images. Read the permissions carefully that they apply for video.
- Have fun!!
A Sample Process
I have Apple devices and will share here what I am doing.
- I record the reading with my iPhone on a tripod and either a micorphone or the headphones with build in microphone that came with my phone.
- I airdrop the video to my laptop.
- I import the video into iMovie and edit.
- The graphics are created in Canva. I use custom dimensions 800x450
- I upload the finished video to YouTube.
- Then, I download the mp4 file from YouTube
- Open DTube - remember, only your posting key is required
- Upload the video, snap, and text.
- Publish
When you are done, drop the link in the comments of this contest post.
If you are running into problems, make sure to check out the OneLoveDTube discord.
They are working on an alternative uploader and such - but it is not free.

Here is my author reading. I hope that you all like it, this is my first heavily edited video. Took a bit more time than I was expecting but I think in the future it'll go a lot more smoothly. I'd love any feedback on it you would be willing to give.
