William writes, voices, and produces Hello From The Hallowoods, a weekly fiction podcast which merges horror genre tropes with explorations of queer love, identity, and grief. The omnipresent Nikignik narrates short and increasingly connected stories about the inhabitants of the forest at the end of the world. 

 

The show has won seven Audio Verse Awards for writing, storytelling, and sound design, and received nominations for the People's Choice Best LGTBQ+ Podcast Of The Year and the Discover Pods Best Fiction Podcast. You can learn more about the show on the Hello From The Hallowoods website. 

Production for the show, as well as its connected novels and story projects, is entirely crowd-funded by its listeners. You can find bonus stories, behind-the-scenes and more on the Hallowoods Patreon
