What's the story? The story is that podcasting is here to stay.
Podcasts have always been popular, but they’re growing even more. Whether you want to listen to fiction or nonfiction podcasts, there are plenty of options for you.
There are many reasons why people love to listen to podcasts, but one of the most popular formats is fiction podcasts. There are many types of shows that could fit under the umbrella of “fiction podcasts,” including sci-fi, fantasy and thrillers as well as horror stories. Audiences are primarily adults between 25 and 54 who are also avid readers; 65% of listeners in a recent survey said they would like to hear more podcasts in languages other than English!

One of the most popular formats is the fiction podcast. These are an excellent way to experience a story in a different way, as they often use voice-over narration, sound effects and music to immerse listeners more deeply into the characters and plot lines.
Fiction podcasts can be used as promotional tools for books or other content that you want your audience to know about. They can also be used as learning tools for language learners who want something new but don't have time (or money) for formal education classes.
And if you have kids who are interested in reading but lack confidence in their own abilities—or just like learning new things—then these are great ways of getting them excited about reading!

Fiction podcasts are a new format that's gaining ground in the podcasting world. You might be wondering: what exactly is fiction? Well, “a piece of literature that tells an imaginary story” is how one would define it. The type of show you'll find on Fiction Podcasts can vary from genre to genre and include everything from sci-fi, fantasy, thrillers and horror stories.
There are many types of shows that could fit under this umbrella: anything from interviews with authors to investigative reporting on topics like crime or politics—and even comedy! Even if you're not interested in listening to someone reading their book aloud (though we highly recommend you try it), there are plenty of other ways to enjoy fiction podcasts!
Sci-fi, fantasy, thrillers, and horror stories are well suited to audio.
Audio is a great way to engage with the listener. It's also an effective way of transporting listeners into another world—or at least making them feel like they're there.
One of my favorite things about listening to podcasts is that it can help you escape from reality for a little while (and I'm not just talking about all those hours spent in your car). You could be listening on your commute or sitting at home relaxing after work; either way you'll be immersed in another world that feels more real than anything else going on around you right now!
Audiences are primarily adults between 25 and 54, who are also avid readers.
Podcasts are a great way to reach a new audience, because they are primarily consumed by people who already read. The average age of podcast listeners is 37 years old, compared to 49 years old for traditional radio listeners.
Podcasts also appeal to older listeners; according to Edison Research (the company that conducts listener surveys), over half (52%) of all podcasting households have at least one member over 50 years old. And since most people prefer listening on their phones or computers, you can use your own website or app type as well as iTunes Radio for distribution.
In addition to reaching readers with your story ideas, podcasts offer one-on-one interaction with hosts who ask questions and engage with the audience members in real time—something we're seeing more and more often in fiction podcasts today!

In a recent survey, 65% of listeners said they would like to hear more podcasts in languages other than English. If you have a story that could connect with an international audience, or if you’re interested in creating one for yourself, podcasting is a great way to reach new listeners around the world.
We’re seeing more and more fiction podcasts that are translated into other languages. The podcast “Crimetown” is available in Spanish, Italian, German, French and Portuguese as well as English. And some of our most popular shows have launched foreign-language versions including "Limetown" in Spanish; "The Truth" in Danish; and "Snap Judgment Presents: Spooked" in Arabic.
The process of translating a podcast into another language can be challenging, but it’s also very rewarding. It takes time and effort to make sure the translation is accurate and flows well enough that listeners won’t notice there are words being spoken in another language. You also have to consider how your listener will access the podcast; if they need to download an app or subscribe through iTunes,
Conclusion.
The best way to get started is to create a storyboard, which will give you an idea of what your podcast will look like in terms of visuals. You should also think about how much time it will take to record each episode and how many episodes you can realistically put out each month.
