Hope everyone is staying safe, and, of course, writing.
I wish I could say we've finalized the deal with the artist, but we're all but there. I had asked the lawyer who drafted the original agreement we use to review it to see if there needs to be any updates (No AI, etc.). Since it's a favor, I can't get too mad, but the artist is chomping at the bit to get started and I'm anxiously waiting, too.
We had a second conversation with James Silvani, a comic book artist and the creator of Pirates: A Graphic History (But not THAT kind of graphic), which had a successful Kickstarter last year. My sons had run into him at Comic-Con and he said he was interested in appearing again, which is always nice to hear. You can watch it on our twitch.tv/powerssquared for the next few days, listen to it here or wait and watch it on our YouTube channel on Wednesday at 2:30 pm.
On Trophy Unlocked, we continued Noirvember with my Saturday Morning review of I Wake Up Screaming. On Wednesday, Game Day, was Trevor's review of Once Upon a Katamari. I'm working on my review of The Batman serial, which is going to be long; and Heroes For Sale (1933).
I'm finding, and I'm not sure it's all blameable on Daylight Savings Time, but I'm getting to things later in the evening and thus have less time to go from being productive to being a half-awake zombie at a laptop. Part of it has been dealing with our prospective artist and sending things to them, but work seems to go on longer and that makes everything get pushed back. Also, we shot our podcast on Thursday night, rather than Friday, and had some retakes we had to do because of audio issues, but that sort of took up two nights, the first being getting ready for it after the guest confirmed two nights before at 11:30 pm.
As a result, my output on Blackmail wasn't what I wanted it to be. I started a new chapter but I'm not happy with the results but let's count the words for 66,618, which I don't think really moves the needle much.
I'll try to do better this week, but it's a pledge, not a promise.
Well, that about does it for me. Keep writing and I'll see you here next week.
