Hi all, just to let you know about a free competition that might interest you if you're looking to have your work published as an audio story. If yours is one of the short stories selected it'll be narrated by a professional and published on the site's home page. You can include links to your blog, ...

So that's upload number two on Bibliophone now (come on, that's double the content of what was on there this time yesterday..) and I have to say it's a lot better audio than my effort!
