With Mike Murphy, Julie Hoverson and Glenn Hascall.
Nothing happens until a writer puts the story on paper. Mike, Julie and Glenn are three successful audio drama writers with decades of experience between them and a lot of experience to share. An excellent review for veteran writers and an inspiration for new ones. (Note: Glenn Hascall’s responses were recorded separately and edited into the conversation which explains the difference in audio quality.)

guest-glenn-hascallGLENN HASCALL: Glenn has written more than 400 stage plays and has worked in broadcasting and voice acting for more than 20 years. He’s prerecording his part of this podcast because he starts work at 3:30 in the morning and right now… (in a whisper) he’s sleeping.
