A lot of good stories here, but most people will never get to read them since TB2000 is members only. So, I am asking if the writers would be willing to let someone read their stories for YouTube, or Rumble.
I do not mean just a video of a person reading the stories. We saw how bad that could be when David Crawford tried reading Lights Out, or when Keith Churchill tried to read the Rat's Of NIMH trilogy.
I'm thinking more like the person doing this could use voice modulation to give each character their own voices. Maybe showing different color text as the words are being read. Maybe not. Not everyone can type at 50 words a minute.
Before you agree, please remember, if you do publish someday. You did give permission to do this.
Note... I have not said that I would be the one doing this, or even that it will actually get done. I would like to try, but good microphones are expensive, and voice modulators monthly membership are expensive for my tightly limited budget(and let's be honest, I don't trust AI), so I'm not asking for permission for me to do this, I'm asking the writers if they would be ok with anyone doing this, and I'm putting the idea out, with the hope that I will be able to do it, but if someone else likes the idea, and can do it, have fun.
Unlikely as it is, if anyone else does decide to try this, please tell the story you're working on. Would be disappointing if someone spent a week trying to read a story, just to discover someone else beat them to it.
