Crit and Horney (Audio Book Passion Project)

Project Overview

My name is Newpop and my passion project is an audiobook I'm making called "Lost In Fight Forest." The CCC project is named "Crit and Horney" because I plan on making this a complete series because I really enjoy working on it and have a lot of motivation. I may not have managed a project before, but I have been part of others' projects and I'm dedicated to finishing this one so I can later move on to others.


The story follows our main character Crit, an antisocial critter cat (a species I made for this story specifically.) It's his first day at summer camp and he's finding it hard to make new friends. It takes a while but he finally makes his first friend named Horney. More time passes by and the camp counselor tells a story about a lethal place called "fight forest." Horney is intrigued by this and suggests that Crit and him venture out to discover this "fight forest." I think that's where they made their mistake...


  • I am a minor that doesn't mean people 18+ can't help, but just be cautious when talking to me and other minors incorporated in this project
  • The genre of the story consists of fiction, adventure, and possibly fantasy
  • I will write, edit, and make art for this project though if anyone else can help that would be greatly appreciated 
  • I will do my best to credit everyone accordingly, I'll value anyone who can help me produce this (adding your name to the video description, linking your socials, allowing you to watermark your art as long as it doesn't block your art)

It's not just gonna be an audiobook, it's gonna be posted on youtube, so I've decided to add a little bit of imagery. I'll just tell you this before hand so you don't have any questions. You don't have to copy my art style, but you must use a cartoony art style. Me and anyone else who decides to choose this role will either create art for promotional purposes or for scenes in the story.

I'll be writing this whole story on my own, which means I'm bound to make mistakes. This is where you can possibly come in handy. I'll send you a link to a google doc that only you can view and give you the "commenter" role. This allows you to make suggestions without directly editing the document. Feel free to point out grammar mistakes, consistency errors, etc.
