The OUTspoken project is searching for those willing to share their personal coming out story - you can be freshly 'out of the closet' or perhaps coming out was something you did a long time ago! The story can be as anonymous as it needs to be - since what is important to the OUTspoken project is to capture the story itself. All we need is your first name, age and what part of the country you're in ... the rest of the story is yours to tell.
We will be recording these stories in our Philadelphia studios using standard telephone lines - so all you need is a phone and a block of time where you are alone and undisturbed. The OUTspoken project will broadcast both regionally within the Greater Philadelphia area as well as globally as a podcast via the internet - our hope is that your words, your stories, will help those closeted make the important step to come out themselves.
If you're interested in being part of the OUTspoken project, drop us a line via this page - or you can use qzine@xpn.org -- and include a brief summary of your personal coming out experience, along with your first name, your age and the state in which you reside.
We expect to receive a large amount of emails from those wanting to tell their story ... so please be patient. This project is ongoing - and we will reply to everyone!
Finally, help spread the word about the OUTspoken project by adding us as a friend and by leaving a comment on just how important it was for you to come out in your life!
Much Thanks,
Robert & Jenny
