Stories Unbound on Substack is where books break free from the page and come alive through immersive fullcast audio experiences.

Fictional characters have voices. Of course, they do—writers hear them in their heads as they write. As their creator, writers know how they sound. They think they know. Then they assign an actual voice, a specific timbre, and something shifts. The character they created steps off the page and becomes someone they recognize. Someone who exists outside the writer’s skull.
