    Hey, Drew. Love the concept of your story. I found it fresh and original. Did you write it for the purpose of being presented in audio format? It got me wondering how the experience would have been if read purely from the page (truly only wondering — not thinking it would have been better or worse, just different).

    Fun undertaking. Glad to see you trying a variety of media with your stories.

    1. drewchial – When Drew Chial was very young, he found an attic hidden in his bedroom closet. He discovered it investigating an indentation in the ceiling, nudging it with a broom, until it fell inward. There was no stepladder for him to climb, so he scaled the shelves. Shining his flashlight, he found a long triangular hall, twice the length of his bedroom. Every surface was coated in pink insulation that made his skin itch. Creeping into the basement, Drew stole a sleeping bag that he unrolled on the attic floor. He set a tiny aluminum lock box on top of it. This is where he hid the things he wrote. Now Drew hides them in plain sight.

      Thanks so much for taking the time to listen to it.

      I was thinking about how I might adapt it into an audio drama when I wrote, but at the time I didn’t know anyone interested in doing it. I submitted the story to the folks at Fancy Pants Gangsters last fall when they said they were interested in doing a Twilight Zone-esque radio drama series.

      My Soundcloud account is filled with stories I’ve adapted on my own, but this was nice handing it off to a full cast of actors.

      Again, thanks so much for checking this one out.

        Did you record the audio versions of your other things yourself (e.g., “Terms and Conditions”)?

        I did. I also did all the voice work, audio effects, and music in the Soundcloud panel on the side of my site. 🙂
