It's June, and on June the First I offered to let Patrons who pledged at the Intrepid Reporter level (otherwise known as $10 or more) ask me any questions they liked, with an eye to printing the answers today. Well! It's today, and the answers are up! Free for all to read (you had to… Continue reading June Questions and Answers on the Patreon for free!

The May Banter Latte/Patreon Roundup!
A roundup of May's entries on Banter Latte, a roadmap for June's entries, some Patreon news, and such and sundry!
Coming Up This Week!
Here's what's coming up on Banter Latte this week!
⎇001JW Interviewing Leather Revisited: Forward
The story as it exists clearly has its fans (and its detractors, but that's as may be). However... it's *very* rough. Ragged. There are plenty of typos and bad choices. It needs editing at the very least before it could be published as either an eBook or as part of an anthology.
May 2020 News and Update!
The news on site upgrades and new content!
July Status Update
Just to keep folks up to date, here's what's in the fire, for both here and on the Patreon...
State of the Eric, with bonus picture of The Lady
A quick word on where I am and where I've been and what happens now.
Let’s Gather Some Audience Information™!
Hey all! It's poll time! This is not "what Eric is working on next." Eric's writing a myth and editing a poem, then getting a datasheet out next. However, we've had a block of Banter Latte content come out over the course of Folio #1, and as we move into Folio #2 and beyond I… Continue reading Let’s Gather Some Audience Information™!
The Home Front: Homecoming: For Those Who Came In Late
Previously in The Home Front and "Homecoming #1-4:" Decades before the Age of Heroic Intent, the first costumed heroes and super heroes began to appear. The first of these Mystery Men -- and also also the last -- was Knight City's Adrian Wainwright, AKA the Golden Swashbuckler, who began his career in 1923 and retired in… Continue reading The Home Front: Homecoming: For Those Who Came In Late
Patreon: The Last Week of Folio #1
It's been a busy week over on the Patreon. I tried my best not to spam everyone with updates -- that way lies madness and people disliking you -- but it makes sense to catch people up as well as keep folks abreast of what's coming up next here on Banter Latte. Folio #1 is… Continue reading Patreon: The Last Week of Folio #1
Second Betas, or “We Have Always Been at War with Eastasia”
Part of Folio #1 is the second Beta of the actual "Interviewing Leather" novella, which raises an interesting point about the writing process. When I first wrote "Interviewing Leather..." it was 2007. My intentions for Justice Wing were very different than they have become over time. In fact, "Cannon," posted in first beta over the… Continue reading Second Betas, or “We Have Always Been at War with Eastasia”
Meet the new Banter Latte!
So, this was supposed to happen, oh, three years ago. See, three years back -- almost a year after things like Lovelace½ had gone on hiatus -- I was gearing up for a complete site redesign and an entirely new way of doing things. I'd actually done a ton of work reconciling my Justice Wing and Mythic Heroes… Continue reading Meet the new Banter Latte!
