The Legendry
You might be wondering...what exactly is a "legendry". Well, I'm glad you asked.
A legendry is a noun, not an adjective, that is defined as "a body of legends". Think of topical collections of stories, like Arthurian legends, or morality tales, or frightening folklore.
Basically, if you can gather enough legends together, even you can have yourself a "legendry".
So I made one for you.
Pulling together classic fairy tales and some relaxing music, The Legendry aims to be exactly what you need after a busy day. It's my answer to all the grown-ups (and kids!) who miss hearing good, old fashioned bedtime stories.
Why, you might ask? Well, because sometimes we need to stop, pause, and breathe. It's a busy world out there, and we could all use a pit stop from time to time. So it's my hope that The Legendry can become your oasis. A moment each week when you can close your eyes and just listen. A little music, a bit of story, and no interruptions or distractions.
In fact, I'm so committed to that idea that I'm not releasing this as a public podcast. Yes, it's going to take time and energy to make this show. But supporting it with ads would mean breaking the spell, killing the mood, and defeating the purpose. And so...it's ad-free and locked behind a paywall (you're welcome, and I'm sorry) over on Patreon.
But I'm going to keep the price low. Right now, I think $5 each month should cover it. That's roughly a dollar per story, which—come on—isn't that bad, all things considered. And joining up will give you access to the entire archive (which, I'll admit, is non-existent at the moment), as well as beautiful PDF transcripts to go with each story.
Look, there's a lot of paid content out there, so I get it if one more monthly bill is the last thing you need. It's totally up to you. But if we can grow this community, I can increase the story output beyond weekly. And I have a lot of ideas for Expansion Packs down the road. You know, extra stuff that you can upgrade to...if you want.
Ultimately, this is an experiment and a gamble. An adventure, you might say. But no one ever had fun staying home. So if you're willing to join me...there are so many places I'd like to take you.
Welcome to The Legendry. Classic tales, simply told.
