StarShipSofa makes some noise
01/02/2008 Source: Jessica Martin 

The StarShipSofa podcast are moving into audio science fiction short stories by the likes of Alastair Reynolds and Bruce Sterling.

Various SF writers have offered to let the StarShipSofa narrate their works. Writers who have already donated their work include Ian Watson, Pat Cadigan, Harry Harrison, Joe Haldeman, Joan D Vinge, Norman Spinrad, Ian MacDonald, J D Nordley, Bruce Sterling, Gweneth Jones, Alastair Reynolds, Jerry Pournelle, Landon Jones, John Varley, Pat Murphy, John Kessel, Laurel Winter, Jeff Vandermeer, Kevin J Anderson, Bradley Denton and Matthew Hughes.

Tony Smith at StarShipSofa said that the authors donated their work to be narrated for free as long as there was no money to be made.

Tony told SFcrowsnest.com, "I wanted to start getting great stories out there for free and thought the best way to do that was to contact the writers directly. All have been happy to donate works to the StarShipSofa as long as we make no money from this venture. That is exactly what we are doing. We have just narrated the 1985 Hugo Short Story winner The Crystal Spheres by David Brin. We have also put out audio stories by Michael Moorcock: London Bone, Through The Shaving Mirror, A Slow Saturday Night At The Surrealist Sporting Club, and The Lost Sorceress of the Silent Citadel. We have also just released a Peter Watts story called The Second Coming Of Jasmine Fitzgerald."
