The Short Story. WILDSound has performed 12 short story readings in 2014, plus it is in the process of making a Children’s Short Story book into a movie. Go to http://www.youtube.com/wildsoundfest and watch the Diamond and the Foster movies.

We believe in the art of the short story as it will be the future of storytelling as we move onward in this information age. After all, you can categorize this blog post and the 1 million other blogs on the net as short stories, right?

What is a short story? That’s really hard to define. It typically centers around a self-contained incident or a single effect mood or tone. It’s longer than an anecdote, but shorter than a novel.

Short stories really have no set length, which makes it difficult for others, including this festival, to produce and distribute. Every story is like its own body of creation.

WILDsound’s Festival is proud to present over 200 short story loglines in over 24 genres:
