2. How Radio Writing Can Help Your Web Writing

Old time radio drama is the future.

In my novel, I'm working with the hardboiled, over-dramatic, and image-driven narration style that old time radio dramas evoked. If you listen to these shows on your iPod, it's intimate as a little kid leaning against a radio receiver. It's a style that all fledgling writers should learn for web writing.

If you want to experiment, the time has never been better. Ed Champion is working on A Grand Radio Project.  Today LitPark interviews Chuck Collins, author of The Radio Murders--a podcast set of novels about a grim radio station. Collins took his dayjob as a radio broadcaster and turned it into mysterious gold.

Finally, over the last two years I've written about countless pulp fiction productions from The Great Hardboiled Radio List to my I Was A Communist for the FBI essay to this this videoblogged interview with pulp fiction lover Paul Malmont. Read your work out-loud, let's go back to the gripping, stylish days of radio drama.
