I'm happy to officially announce that my next big radioplay adaptation is going to be of my own short story Fox News. And I'm very excited for it! :D I haven't exactly been quiet about this, and if you follow my Twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/RahneKallon), you'll see that I've talked about it quiet a bit, and you may even recall I made a journal or two on FA, stating my intentions for it, but I figured it was time to make my official announcement that I actually am doing it, along with some little details.

So, yes, this is officially the next voice over project I'm working on, and pretty much the most important thing to me, voice over-wise, right now. It means a lot to me especially because it's my own short story. I never expected this to become my most popular story, and I don't even think it's my best story, let alone as good as some of the Ian and Jamie stories, but I'm very happy that so many people have read it and enjoyed it, and I'm especially honoured that it was nominated for a Coyotl Award. It means so much to me that you guys appreciate my work this much.

I've got a release date in mind, and I'm thinking early September, because I'd like to have it done before I head off to Rainfurrest.

I'm also very happy to say that  wolly (Shay), voice actor/director/writer of Bitter Lake is going to be voicing Alley Robin. I'm seriously excited for this, because I honestly can't imagine Alley being voiced by anyone else. Shay's got the perfect, smooth, sexy voice that I imagine Alley having, so it was a pretty easy decision. Also, go watch Bitter Lake. Just sayin'. Any fan of voice acting or fursuiting should watch that film. It's truly a fantastic achievement what those guys did within our fandom. Those guys went through more hell with Bitter Lake than I went through with Cruelty.

Really, I think this adaptation was always going to happen. Out of all the stories I've written, this one is probably the most dialogue driven (which makes sense, doesn't it?), and dialogue is what really drives a radioplay. I also like that this should be fairly easy, because Fox News only has four characters. That's it. Four characters. Cruelty was a much bigger story, with a lot more characters, but Fox News is a pretty tight-night thing, with two main characters, a supporting character, and one minor character. Like I did with Cruelty, I'll be taking the same duties as director, editor, producer, voice actor, and all that fun stuff.

I'd also like to say that up to this point, I've had a lot of time to grow and learn how audio and voice overs work. There's so much I could have done better in my previous stuff, and having learned all that I have, I feel like I have a chance to make Fox News something great, and I really do hope that it's something you all enjoy, whether you're a fan of the story itself, a fan of my writing, or a fan of my voice overs at all. I want to bring these characters to light, and have fun doing so.

So, yeah, we're totally doing this. Look forward to September and hearing Aiden and Alley, and that crazy interview that took place!
