A Week in Writing #605 - New Powers Squared Release

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

This week, the next issue of Powers Squared comes out. It's been six months since we've put out an issue. It's not that the issue wasn't ready, it was that the follow up story arc wasn't. The original plan was to put the issue out last year, but when work on Issue #28 ground to a halt, we decided to move the issue to this spring. We have since replaced that artist and are moving forward to Issue #30, as production seems to be back on track.

Last seen in Powers Squared issue #18, "Mocha and Raven, Part 3," Billy O'Shea and Raven get their own issue with "Billy and Raven, A Powers Squared Story: Life on the Road." Billy uses his powers of strength and punctuality to good use as a truck driver. Raven, the Yatagarasu who granted him those powers, is by his side, as the two try to lay low and out of reach of Dr. Atlas. But life on the road can be dangerous. The issue drops on Wednesday the 25th and can be found in both print and digital through The Campua Store.

Because of the pending release, our podcast on Friday was OAPS #343 - Powers Squared Issue #27 Preview. Artist Julia Canon joined Trevor, Paul and myself to discuss the issue. You can still catch it on Twitch for the next few days, listen to it here, or wait until Wednesday at 2:30 pm PDT to watch it on our YouTube channel. If you do check it out, please subscribe and ring the bell to be notified when new podcasts go up.

Well, I finally finished my first pencil edits on Blackmail. Still work to be done but it was good to go through it once. I'll have to start implementing my edits and rewrites starting next week.

Working on a new review, this one for The Lady Refuses (1931), a pre-code melodrama starring Betty Compson. As always, not sure when it will appear on Trophy Unlocked. In the meantime, there were three reviews up this week, two game reviews by Trevor, Star Fox Command on Tuesday, and Star Fox Zero + Star Fox Guard on Thursday. The Saturday Morning Review was Paul's for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III.

This next week, we're attending WonderCon as professionals. Never heard back from them. I assume we're still on the wait list and that there will also be empty tables when we get there on Sunday. I'll include a report about that next week as well.

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