(WE WANT TO PAY YOU TO WRITE FOR US.)

THE ONCE AND FUTURE NERD is seeking freelance writers to pitch and write minisodes (~5 minute audio drama vignettes) set within the High Fantasy world of our show. Scripts based on accepted pitches will be recorded by our cast and released on our main feed.

These will be PAID commissions – Writers of accepted pitches will receive $40 per completed/approved script.

Writers must be willing to work within our established script format, and to implement Producer notes on content, style, and story canon. Experience writing for audio is preferred, as is existing knowledge of TOAFN’s story world and tone. But anyone with a pitch for a short High Fantasy story will be considered.

Writers of Color and writers of marginalized genders are strongly encouraged to apply. 

If interested, please email iordic.princes @ gmail with the subject line “Minisode Freelancer.” Include your name, the best way to reach you, and (optional) a link to any relevant work samples you’d like to share. Please DO NOT include your pitch in your initial email. We will respond back with instructions on how to pitch us.

Please note: At this time, we’ll be prioritizing writers with a story pitch already in mind. However, if you don’t have a specific pitch in mind but would still like to be considered for future writing opportunities, do feel free to write in and introduce yourself.Thanks!
