Horror storytelling has a long oral history, and today we hear scary stories over streaming podcasts and downloadable audiobooks and more. What opportunities exist across alternative formats for horror writers, especially in the audio market? Panelists will share their experiences and hard-earned advice in working in podcasts, audiobooks, and similar areas, discussing challenges and how writers can overcome them in order to exploit alternate markets for publishing and promoting their work.
