Shownotes
"People aren't just going to find you if you stop making content. That's not how it works."
Jon Grilz has been making horror audio drama since 2015, when he launched Small Town Horror and later Creepy - a show that now has close to 3,000 episodes across its free and Patreon feeds. In this conversation, we talk about the long road from data-entry jobs and creative burnout to podcasting full-time, including the moment he was days away from quitting altogether.
We also get into the craft: why the telling of a story matters as much as the story itself, what a single-line delivery from a No Sleep narrator taught him about the power of audio, and the simple piece of advice that changed how he thinks about narration.
