A Week in Writing #545 - Happy Father's Day!

Hope everyone is staying safe, and, of course, writing.

Happy Father's Day, to those who celebrate. I know I do.

I'll start this week with our podcast. We were lucky to have Patrick Horvath as our guest. He is the creator of Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees. He was a great guest, as most are, and was willing to talk about his career in film and television as well as comic books. He is about to publish the next chapter in Beneath the Trees, called Rite of Spring, which comes out in early July. You can listen to it now here, watch it for the next few days on our Twitch channel, or wait until Wednesday, when it will premiere on our YouTube channel at 2:30 pm PDT.

Speaking of our podcast, On the Air with Powers Squared, we came up with a business card for it as a way of hopefully enticing more guests for the show.

On the subject of Powers Squared, and The Blade of Miracles, we have completed our agreement with Digital Paper Productions for a phone friendly version of the first books of each. Not sure yet where they will be released, but we'll keep you posted on that front.

And speaking of the two books, both will have issues coming out on the 25th of June. For Powers Squared, it will be the 25th issue, "Yuki-Onna", which Paul wrote; and for TBOM it will be Issue #4, "The Black Knight, Part 1", which Trevor wrote, drew and lettered. They'll both be available in print and digital in The Campus Store on our website.

Turning to movies, this week's Saturday Morning Review on Trophy Unlocked,  was my review of Big City Blues, a 1932 drama starring Joan Blondell. I'm currently working on a review for Berlin Express, part of our clear the DVR. This is a very old recording dating back to the last Summer of Darkness on TCM; 2015.

One new query, and so far nary a word from any agency, good or bad, save a receipt for delivery. But I guess that's just the joy of querying in this day and age.

More work on Blackmail. 41,896 words so far, which is over 2000 more from last week's total.

This week's priority is a press release for the issues, finishing my review and more work on Blackmail.

Well, that just about does it for me. Keep writing and I'll see you back here next week.
