I'm turning my Replenishment screenplay into an audiobook styled after the radio soap operas of the 1940-50's. The first three episodes are up on www.replenishmentstory.com and youtube.

I'm also looking for authors to flush out the 800+ background characters in the story.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

RICHMOND, VA. -- CALLING ON AUTHORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

Author James Schaefer is calling on authors from around the world to join the Replenishment Project and submit short stories (1,000-4,000 words in length) about how the 800+ background characters in his new science fiction story of alien conquest would be rounded up by local, state, and federal authorities, once their identities are released by the news media.

Interested authors would retain ownership of their short stories, which Schaefer would post as ancillary material on his website (www.replenishmentstory.com).

As in any epic story like Tolkiens, Lord of the Rings or Rowlings, Harry Potter, there are thousands of background characters involved in the plot that never get mentioned. My hope is that new writers looking for exposure will accept my offer and add life to these necessary, but often forgotten characters.

Information about the general locations of these background characters can be found on the Abductees page of Schaefers website and should include the teens name, optional supporting characters (e.g. family & friends). The short stories should describe and make use of goods and services available in the selected area and conclude with the capture of the selected teen or a clever substitute; as the aliens will accept nothing less than the total demanded.

Schaefers mission statement, No Pay, but Great Play reflects his philosophy about his latest project and his hopes of attracting new writers.
