Currently, we have transcripts free and available for all episodes in Dyslexic friendly fonts with pale coloured backgrounds, and we do our best to keep on top of image descriptions when it comes to social media. We also include clear trigger warnings for each episode, and keep our audio even in both sides for headphone users that may be hard of hearing on one side.
What else is it we can be doing to ensure our show is as accessible as possible?
Twigs and Hearts is created, written and produced by disabled people. We have disabled characters voiced by disabled people, often with an aim of similarity. All our Neurodivergent characters are voiced and written by neurodivergent people, and the majority of disabilities shown through our characters are based off their voice actors. We have multiple cane users, deaf characters, blind characters, characters who don't speak and more. The aim is to create characters we relate to and wish we'd seen growing up.
What disabled rep do you wish you'd seen more of growing up?

“You don’t need to fit into a label or a box, especially if they don’t help you.”
“Because if you find the end of your spiralling, you realize you're worthless.”
My first audio drama I found through Tumblr! Such a good soundscape design, truly inspired me to think more about how I design soundscapes and play with sfx. Lots of characters introduced very quickly made it difficult to understand who was who. This led to me needing the transcript to keep up, and I also learned that a lot of sound effects weren’t being described to me what they were, i.e. - a character has their hair tugged and I wouldn’t have known that without reading the transcript as that’s a difficult sound to convey without a character saying “hey! You tugged my hair!”
Still, I looooved Iris and Zenith. The convo between them about their labels made me realize they were the real deal. Can’t wait to listen to season two!

Happy audio drama Sunday!!
Today I took a look at the twigs and hearts tag, something I for some reason have never thought to do before. And I found a surprising amount of posts!
Thank you to anyone who has spoken about the show. Not only does it help get the word out, but it gives feedback from an audience's perspective.
A lot of people mention the large amount of characters so I thought I'd explain a bit more about why season one is the way it is for fun!
I first wrote twigs and hearts when I was 16. It had 5 characters, no Shadowsfield, and a confusing 10 episode layout. After some issues in production, I put it on the back-burner while I learned more about audio engineering and how people spoke. I had been using audio dramas to learn and get comfortable speaking after many years of having selective mutism. I still do, but I can now speak without becoming overstimulated by the sound of my own voice... most of the time.
I met Jasper (the voice of Jolly) a few years later and showed them what audio dramas were like behind the scenes. With their help, and the help of the amazing Ryan (voice of REDACTED), we managed to get the show back into a progressing state of production. Jasper created Shadowsfield to allow us to show REDACTED's side, and we incorporated a side story into the main plot. During the revamp I realised I wanted to show a few other characters, such as Dylan, who existed only by mention, and suddenly we had a large scale production.
Ignoring Shadowsfield, a lot of the written scenes from 16 year old me stayed in. I'd grown too attached to the original draft and the unhinged production process that came with it. Season one was written jumping between episodes until it became what you now hear. I agree, it is a lot of characters to keep an eye on, and maybe one day I'll go back and rewrite season one so it can live up to the quality of the new seasons. There's more I wish I could explain but I fear it would spoil seasons 2 and 3 so remind me to come back here when we get there. But for now, look out for the in-character re-cap mini episode, coming soon thanks to our lovely season two backers!
And we hope you enjoy getting to know our characters a little better starting June 10th when we come back for season two!!
Thank you for all the love,
- Cry MJ
