  Award Winner at the 2023 Hear Now Palooza, sponsored by National Audio Theater Festivals. Wizards. Prisoners. Preachers. And robots! They stick out. They change the conversation. They challenge the traditional narrative. They are Outcasts—isolated, different, misunderstood. Being normal is nice. But being outcast is a real part of the human experience. Have you ever had the feeling of being alone in some way, of being on the outside looking in? If so, then the characters in these 18 short stories will move you--sometimes by their depravity, sometimes by their sorrow...and sometimes by their joy.
