Jack writes the lion's share of Sonic Cinema Production's (previously Electric Vicuna) Audio Drama scripts and has his own writing site at www.jackjward.com. Jack also is the middle of book writing, screenplay production, and is the CEO of the Mutual Audio Network- where he and the best people in the world Listen & Imagine, Together!.
He's thrilled to co-host the Sonic Society with his wonderful, talented, friend David Ault as they enter their second decade in the medium!

This was a great interview! I really hope Audioflix can succeed. I think Jacqueline is right about the 20-35 year olds. They are not going to succeed unless they get that group excited. Older people (and I’m one of them) are a very limited market.
Here’s my unsolicited advice for them:
1. Introduce this medium to a new generation. You should have video clips of young people talking about audio dramas that they like, why they like them, when they listen to them, etc.
2. Make it easy for them. Prioritize smartphone apps. Make it so that with one click they can share an audio drama promo clip on social media.
3. Consider making it transparent how audio drama producers and writers would get paid. This is very motivating for people. The online platform Udemy has been very successful with this approach.

Excellent thoughts. Thanks so much Peter!
