NARR8 Now Allows You To Self-Publish Original Content!

NARR8 has just come out with a new “Editor” tool that allows users to upload their original content to the NARR8 channel. Simply put, “Editor” is a self-publishing platform that puts your work on the NARR8 channel. If you’re an aspiring writer or artist, this is an incredible tool for you. All you need is the completed artwork, the text, and music (if you like) in template form. Using “Editor” you can create your own novellas/comics that will then be available for free download to NARR8′s 700,000 users. I have yet to see the program in action, but it all seems pretty awesome to me if you’re interested in digital media storytelling. Below you can see a bunch of screenshots and the official press release:
