News: Double… no wait, TRIPLE Pentad Day!

Preamble Above, News Below! If you’re in a TL;DR state of mind, feel free to skip down to the news below! As I mentioned last week, it’s May the Fifth — and while everyone knows May the Fourth is one of the biggest days of the pop culture year, as someone who’s entire life became dominated by the concept of the Pentad dating all the way back to — no joke — 1993? I’m pretty psyched about today…

Patchwork Worlds: Structuring an inter-related anthology

An interesting comment came up, regarding one of my beta stories on my Patreon. It was a short story — not, perhaps, the most common thing I write these days (though there’s a myth partially completed which would beg to differ) — and the reader didn’t care for it. It’s not that he thought it was bad… it’s that it didn’t work for him as a story, because there wasn’t significant character…

Justice Wing: Interviewing Leather — the Arrival Page

So we had a migration one day, and this is where we ended up… and all kinds of navigation had to be left behind — and this was one of them. But you don’t care. You just want the Arrival Page for Interviewing Leather. For whatever reason, the paid version of WordPress hates redirecting pages, so clicking the link’s what you’ve got. Sorry about that.

Administration: Banter Latte in the coming weeks! (Print version of Interviewing Leather! SHH!)

Interviewing Leather: The Todd Chapman Interview and Being the Steve is being published in electronic and dead tree form on May 14! And that’s not all! Sorry. Seemed like a bad idea to bury the lede.

Leather beamed. “Yes I did, Marco! Yes I did! That brings me to the next item on the agenda…

⎇001JW Interviewing Leather Revised #8 (almost twice the content of the original post!)

“Or sometimes it’s just… it’s just what they do, and I have no idea why. I mentioned Bandolier? He loves Paramount City. And he really wants to kill the Beacon, but he’s also… he’s a friend and I don’t want to bag on him, but he’s… protective of her. He hates her but doesn’t want to hear shit about her. I knowit’s not sexual or romantic or stalker-twisted-things-its-romantic. I just don’t know…

⎇001JW Interviewing Leather Revised #7

“Look, I know it’s vigilante justice, but there’s a right way and a wrong way, you know? I can’t just go crack skulls because they might be selling drugs. I have to have more than that. If I don’t, then there’s too much of a chance of screwing up – of hurting someone because I don’t like their looks. There are words for that, and I don’t like those words at all. Nuh-uh. No thank you.”
