[email protected] I'm Terry from Southern California. I've listened to radio dramas as a kid with my dad. Always, looked forward to Sunday Nights. As I've grown older, I find that they inspire the imagination way more than Television ever could. I've been on the web for a long time, but recently found out how big a Genre it is on the web. And, to find that people are keeping the tradition alive, with new ones, is fantastic. So, I'm looking for anyone that would like to help me increase my collection of Radio Dramas. Comedy, Drama, Sci-Fi, Mystery, Horror, Superheroes, etc. I don't have much, but would be willing to trade what little I do have. I do dabble in some Sci-Fi writing, and was an actor for a while, would love any correspondence about getting started with radio drama writing. I'd love to make a stab at it.
