Pretty sure that’s better than what I did.
oh. and brother’s keeper better still be happening >.>
Seriously? I feel like you were jamming all these great short stories all summer. Way better word count rate. And aren’t you in an upcoming steampunk anthology?!
I was thinking realistically brother’s keeper is gonna happen closer to winter times…unless you think I should trade out the nanowrimo and do that instead of the james/turkish & Bucky/Franky bit.

More Swallowed by the Whale
Finished Haunted City
Edited and published Art Criticism
2014 spring/summer writing goals:
Edit Juicy Fruit
Swallowed by the Whale chapters for Yaoifix
Finish Art Crit sequel for serious
Start Portland based comic script for my artist friend
Marfa Texas road trip short story
Back burner thoughts:
Three Card Monte
Vampire hunter/vampire story set in Portland
Oakland based mafia story I really wanna write but shouldn’t
My Brother’s Keeper (Swallowed by the Whale sequel)
Finish Treasured

if it’s emergency repairs, would you even have the time/ability to unload the cargo?
Thanks for asking! Haha. Well they already had some fun with a stopgap rigged pump and plugging the leak while at sea, and now they have made it to shore. So to continue the journey at a reasonable speed they are going to careen the ship on the beach and actually repair the hull. I learned today that pirates were all about careening their ships and clearing off sea life frequently because it kept their ships light and fast. But from the little bit I could find it sounds like if you are going to do that you do have to take the cargo out first. The things I do to write like 5 sentences.
Also I found this book on bilge pumps surprisingly well written and kinda romantic (if sinking 18th century ships are kinda romantic):

Setting a story on a whaling ship is all fun and games until you have to spend 40 min trying to figure out if you have to unload all the cargo before you can careen the ship to make emergency repairs.

So I was wanting to know if it would be okay if I did a fan-comic basic off of your writing ‘Treasured’? I would totally give you credit for the story/characters and all that, and send you updates on any art I actually end up doing.
I just really love that story and really identify with Azi in an odd way. From chapter 2 I wanted to draw the whole thing out, but wanted to get permission from you first.

Hey! This sounds super fun, please do! And be sure to send me the link!
