Every supervillain heist needed a Steve -- a henchman who scoped the area ahead of the job, gave the all clear, watched for police or heroic intervention, and stayed clear and un-arrested so he could make the call to the Service if the villain and other henches were arrested. The Service would then clear out… Continue reading “Being the Steve” rough draft on Patreon

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… Continue reading Patchwork Worlds: Structuring an inter-related anthology
“Like a Shot from a Cannon” beta up at Patreon
Hey all! Interviewing Leather and Patreon news! So, I started writing the first short story for Patreon. Once that was finished, I'd move on to the first Banter Latte tagged content, then another short story, and so on. The story was a prequel to "Interviewing Leather" the novella, about the last days of Dynamo Girl. I… Continue reading “Like a Shot from a Cannon” beta up at Patreon
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,… Continue reading Justice Wing: Interviewing Leather — the Arrival Page
Interviewing Leather, Part Fourteen
And this is it. The conclusion of "Interviewing Leather." And I have to admit, I feel pretty good about it. Todd Chapman, in the story, is writing an article called 'Interviewing Leather.' The subject of that article is the so-named supervillain Leather, who he has been hired to interview. But the novella/serial "Interviewing Leather," by… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Fourteen
Interviewing Leather, Part Thirteen
Part thirteen of "Interviewing Leather." This is, if anything, denouement and epilogue, and a chance for some voices on the other side of the fence to chime in on a few of the points Leather herself made. It also sets up the last part, which should come out next week. God knows what we'll replace… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Thirteen
Interviewing Leather, Part Twelve
A week and a half wait. And (with the possible exception of the Dynamo Girl leg) the most anticipated part of the interview so far. Part twelve of "Interviewing Leather." It's also four thousand words long. I hope folks like it. We also (finally) have some fan art to put up (my delay -- not… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Twelve
Interviewing Leather, Part Eleven
And here we have the eleventh part of "Interviewing Leather." Stubbornly enough, she refuses to just end, though we can see the ending from here. Another part next week, maybe extending into the week after, and then one or two parts devoted to denoument. I really need to figure out what to replace her with.… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Eleven
Interviewing Leather, Part Ten
And here we have part ten of "Interviewing Leather." A moderately well-anticipated part, as near as I can tell, as we've got Dynamo Girl and Todd out in the city proper now, out to save the world. There's not much more I can say, other than 'enjoy!' Ten eighteen. If someone had come up to… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Ten
Interviewing Leather, Part Nine
Hey hey, kids! It's time for another "Interviewing Leather!" This is a story, as I've mentioned before, that I've been working on for just over a year. That includes some of my notes, and also includes the character of Darkhood, mentioned in the last couple of episodes as a C-list superhero. Well, it only hit… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Nine
Interviewing Leather, Part Eight
And thus did Tuesday come, and "Interviewing Leather" came right along with it! I'm not sure what else I have to say, other than 'enjoy' and 'aside from some saltiness of language, it's less mature rated.' So instead, I give you the very first LEATHER FAN ART! This come to us from the Minister of… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Eight
Interviewing Leather, Part Seven
This is late -- for some value of late given that Tuesdays are still officially Random and I don't have an obligation (for some value of obligation) to actually update on them. Still, it is the next installment of "Interviewing Leather" and I'm glad to have it. It's also a bit longer -- clocking in… Continue reading Interviewing Leather, Part Seven
