The Nomad Narrator: A Mobile Studio Project
THE NOMAD NARRATOR is a long-form audio adventure, growing the audio book world's sense of connection by featuring narrators across America - their spaces and their stories - in podcast and picture. While attempting to record a book in every state!
A plucky 2012 Ford Transit Connect now dubbed the Vincent Van Go will be undergoing quite the transformation in coming months as I convert it into the complete mobile recording studio needed to... get rolling!
Between a generous arts grant from the Kentucky Foundation for Women and my own personal contribution to the project, about 2/3 of the $15k total project budget is secured.
I could seek corporate sponsorships or try to win more grant funding to cover the remaining amount... but the founding principle of this project is COMMUNITY - fostering, nurturing, and growing connection. So I firmly believe in the necessity of crowdsourcing the remaining $5k directly from our amazing community of audio book creators, listeners, and lovers!
Do you want to be part of making this fabulous fantasy into one heck of an amazing true story? :)
If you'd like to see The Nomad Narrator come to fruition... to get to...
- meet your favorite narrators like never before
- hear how life brought them into the world of audio books
- learn what makes them love their craft
- see up close where and how the magic is made
- become part of the crazy quest of recording fifty books in fifty states(?!)
- and have a front row seat to everything else that evolves along the way
... please support the work by clicking DONATE.
If just 100 people can offer $50 each... we will be at goal!!
Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for updates on The Nomad Narrator's Facebook and Instagram accounts as this project takes shape. Tiered ongoing individual sponsorship options will also become available on Patreon for those who would like to receive access to special on-the-road content while continuing to support this undertaking financially.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!
I am so excited to get this off the ground. It's time to build something amazing together!!!
Love!
