Miscellany Media Studios is launching its first not podcast.
Shared Diaries.Online is fiction project focused on telling modern stories through a modern medium but not in a way that completely breaks from the past. The first entry in the first series went up today.
Meet Alex. Alex falls in love a lot. Alex is also a hot mess. Please help salvage this poor fragile soul salvage all the scattered ash that once was a human heart. Find it at https://shareddiaries.online/red/
Our corner of the podcasting work may be very small and very mediocre, but if you want to be here, we want you here.
So, to that end, you'll notice a new page on our website called "Transcripts."
Going forward, we're going to make it a priority to post transcripts of our episodes as they are post for anyone who needs/wants them. It's something we probably should have done from the beginning, but no one at Miscellany Media had thought of it. Our bad. Super our bad. We're trying to make it right now.
What do we need from you? Patience. Literally just patience.
Because we should have done this sooner, we still have a few episodes in the backlog to transcribe. While they're largely scripted, there's enough improv and editing cuts that would make it irresponsible to just post the script. Add to that, our webpage manager has literally never managed a website before (also broke our RSS feeds a while back, but shhhh don't talk about that). So.... links might not work the way we all want them to. Also our next major launch will be in the "Two people talking" genre which presents complications, but with your patience, we'll get through! Promise.
We'll have designated tumblrs for these transcripts too once we get through the backlog. But that's phase two.
If you need transcripts for whatever reason, we're sorry we didn't welcome you sooner. We weren't paying attention to the door. We are now. Come on in. We have snacks!
Best wishes!!!!
Miscellany Media Reviews, our inaugural podcast, is undergoing a slow release. This is the first time we've had to go through the publishing processing, and essentially MM Reviews is the test case. When this project was devised, we knew it had limited appeal, so whatever hiccups we may experience with it aren't critical ones.
On the other hand, our second podcast is nearing its own launch. My #hugot will be launching at some point this month. We are aiming for Thursday May 10th, but it's not a hard deadline. My #hugot will chronicle one person's experience as she dives deeper into her heritage. While it examines these cultural questions through a specific lens, we hope the lessons learned will be more broadly applicable.
Dear Endless Void that is an Uncaring Internet:
So I know that nobody is here to read this, but... I think it's still an occasion worth noting.
The inaugural episode of the inaugural podcast is getting launched this week.
SO IT BEGINS!!!!!
