We are a group of friends who dream of making our own audio dramas some day, but had no idea how to go about it. They always say, practice makes perfect, so we rounded up a few of our friends and got to work! Our goal is to learn the "how" behind audio drama creation. Co-run by Gem and Lys, 400 Words A Horror allows us the space to have fun, spook up a little, experience, experiment, and learn the ins and outs of audio drama creation! This is a learning experience for all of us so, any feedback - as long as it is constructive - is more than appreciated. Feel free to drop us a message on any of our socials! If you want to stay anonymous, our Tumblr ask box awaits you.
Well, the idea came to Gem while practicing with the Pratchett method called ‘400 words a day.’ The goal is to write a story a day in at least 400 words (ahem... you know, hence the name) to practice and improve on one's own writing. As a result, all of our stories vary in length and topic from episode to episode! We usually have a loose theme for the week and have fun exploring it together!
When we need or want to work with new people, we will announce it on our socials. In the mean time, follow us on Tumblr, Twitter and BlueSky @400WordsAHorror, join our Discord and hone your skills with us! We think we're pretty cool so if you wanna see how we're doing and what we're up to, those are the best places! Links are below! If you like what we do, following and sharing the show is one of the best ways you can support us. It's crazy how far word or mouth or a kind review can go. And, of course, supporting us here on Patreon is also incredibly helpful! ;D

About No Normal Life:
It’s 1991 and Anastacia has a mission from the gods: protect Lana King, The Chosen One, as she crisscrosses the country fighting the forces of evil. But Lana’s not so sure she’s the one who needs protecting. And the enormous crush Anastacia’s developing on her isn’t helping matters either.
If these two would-be monster hunters want to save the world they’re going to have to get their shit together. Or the results could be deadly!
If you want to back No Normal Life's first season on kickstarter you've got until October 31 2024, so go check it out! Tell your friends! And your enemies! And that fun weirdo you sit next to on the bus!
