Time for Some Author Readings!!!!

Calling All the Freewriters!!!!

In the first two weeks of the Freewrite House, we told you about all the fun things we have planned for you! One of them is to entice you to take your stories from the written word to the spoken word.

Personally, I always have been fascinated by the salons of Gertrude Stein held in Paris in the 30s. It started out as a continuation or maybe an alternative to the French Academy Art salons (exhibits) and morphed from visual art to literary art. Here is an article about Gertrude and her salons if you are not familiar with them.

Now, I am not trying to compare us to the artists who gathered there - or maybe I am. They were pushing the limits of what was acceptable in the art world then - and all of us in the realm of anything having to do with crypto are part of the innovators of our times.

Even more so all of you - the residents and visitors of the Freewrite House.

We are here to play, to experiment, to see what can be done and aren't concerned with what others judge as acceptable or good or any label you can think of.

Come here to be free to experiment!!!

A while back, as part of the daily prompt, I called for author readings. I love to listen to the writer reading their own work - there is something magical about that!!

@snook was the first to rise to the challenge! In true snook fashion, she set a high bar.

A Simple Author Reading

What You Do

• Take your phone, your video camera or any recording device and read your story. It would be nice if you use a current prompt - but that is not a requirement.

• If you are shy and don't want your face to show - you don't have to. But it would be fun to get to know you more!!

• Upload your video to DTube if you wish, but YouTube is fine. We have found in the past that Dtube can be slow and suggest that you upload to both platforms and link to both.

• Leave a link to your post in the comment section.
