In Break-My-Back, he’s worked as a bodyguard and an enforcer, but he’s just been banned from any freelance work.

THE REEF Episode #1

Welcome to THE REEF, a brand-new GFL novella co-written by Scott and Matt Wallace (check out Matt’s SIN DU JOUR series, it’s rad). THE REEF works fine as a stand-alone story, but better as a sequel to TITLE FIGHT, also by Matt & Scott.

EARTHCORE Q&A Part 1

The FDØ and ARealGirl get down to the nitty gritty of your questions. So many questions! We talk about EARTHCORE, of course, but also questions about GFL, THE CRYPT, MOUNT FITZ ROY (of course), and more.

WHY EARTHCORE?
Some people asked about why we did a new version of this book. Here’s the link to that story.

EARTHCORE Episode #40

Patrick O’Doyle is badly wounded, but Bertha Lybrand is in even worse shape. Her KoolSuit has failed and she’s dying of heat exposure. They just came across Angus Kool, who is tied up with copper wire after being tortured by Kayla Meyers. He is helpless, at O’Doyle’s mercy. Kayla is farther down in the tunnels, in the ancient tracking down Connell Kirkland, who is carrying her bullet in his leg. Kayla needs to finish him off before she tracks down Veronica Reeves. Veronica is inside the ship, about to lower a bomb deep into the earth … a bomb that will kill everyone.

My Bloody Valentine

StorySmack Episode #46

Happy Valentine’s Day Junkies! We’re doing our best to stay on-brand and still celebrate love. You know, like the love of a great 80s slasher flick!

Scott & A sat down this week to watch this 1981 horror … classic. It comes out pretty early on in the 80s slasher heyday, and it’s full of all that goodness: goofy plot devices, loads of teenagers sinnin’, plenty of gore and lots and lots of violence. All with great set design, some solid bloody prop work, and the world’s best dog actor.

The Storytelling Drama of Combat Sports

StorySmack Episode #44

“But fights aren’t stories,” you say? WRONG-O, FISH-BREATH! Companies like the UFC are exceptional storytellers, creating tales with live performers and unwritten endings. A discusses her initial dismissal and disdain for combat sports, and how she’s come to change her mind. Scott talks about how getting punch in the mouth can lead one to discovering proper, civilized behavior. They both use UFC Fight Night 143 to discuss how these real-life storylines play out, with all the drama, violence, sacrifice and the built-in “Hero’s Journey” path.

Groundhog Day
