TG Geeks Webcast Episode 384
2022/06/27
The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with Zachry Wheeler, author of The Immortal Wake Series, the Max and The Multiverse Series, Max and the Multiverse Shorts, and Puki Horpocket Presents Series of which he has a new entry to chat about. A Phil Short. And if you are familiar with Phil, you are probably as excited as we are to hear about this. This was great conversation as always with Zachry, who we have dubbed the heir apparent to Douglas Adams. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.   About Zachry Wheeler The first thing I can say about my writing history is that I never intended to be a writer. I went to college to become an accountant, and I wish there was a punchline to follow that statement. I made it through half the curriculum before caving to boredom and switching to Computer Science (no offense to the ledger jockeys). Luckily, all of my classes counted as elective credit, so it wasn’t a giant waste of time. I remember sitting in class thinking, “If this what my life will be like, I might as well end it now.” Thank goodness I had the keen insight to switch to a more exciting career in, um … programming. I graduated in the late ’90s. Yup, I left college with a computer degree right before Y2K. At the time, big-tech companies were handing out jobs to anyone who could spell “computer.” I also had the extreme foresight (blind-ass luck) to teach myself web development as it was gaining momentum. I oopsie-doodle back-flipped into a solid career. That’s when my writing life began, but I didn’t know it at the time. Most people think that programming is just staring at code all day. And in a sense, it is. But, there are a lot of other tasks that go along with it, including a large bolus of technical writing. Think documentation, wikis, manuals, etc. At a baseline, most competent programmers are actually decent writers. They need a strong grasp of language in order to do their jobs. It takes a certain amount of editorial skill to translate blocks of machine code into meaningful user instruction. That’s why Technical Writing is its own career. The good ones are worth their weight in gold because they alleviate a lot of user confusion and training costs. This is why I can say that I have been writing professionally for longer than I’ve been a writer. It took me a while to realize that coding was writing, which also gave me the tools to develop my own writing platforms. I have owned and operated several online ventures, everything from review sites to news outlets. I didn’t recognize it at the time, but I had crafted a bypass to the reputation grind. I had the next best thing: a killer web presence. When I decided to write fiction, I already had the basic tools. I still needed to learn hooks, structure, provocation, etc. You know, the things that make books interesting as opposed to sleeping aids. The first draft of my debut novel Transient actually read pretty well as a thesis on vampire biology, but the story lacked pacing and plot. It sucked, in other words, which kind of defeated the purpose. That’s when my writing career began to take shape. I started learning more and more about the craft. I read constantly and devoured every pro tip I could find. The most exciting moment came when I was reading a book and could actually critique it. “This writing sucks and this is why it sucks.” (I was reading my own book, but that’s beside the point.) I had gained the insight I needed to write decent fiction. I was by no means at a Douglas Adams level, but I finally had momentum and I’ve ridden it ever since. That’s what writing is to me,

The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with each other about a topic suggested by Cosmic Library on Twitter. He asked if we had ever talked about if Sci-Fi can transcend entertainment.

The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with each other about the Sci-Fi Genre, namely hard sci-fi versus fluff sci-fi, and the entertainment value of both. In that discussion, we talk about several classic films, some new movies, and TV shows. Are they hard sci-fi or fluff? And then we talk about Shlock sci-fi, guilty pleasure, or just bad. Ultimately, it is about what you want to watch and what you like, so go and watch those guilty pleasures. Happy Watching.

The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with Rory Michaelson, author of the “Lesser Known Monsters" series. We chat with Rory about their third book in the series, The Torn Earth. We chat briefly about how they go into writing about monsters and spawned this trilogy. Rory has some great ideas for future books which we get a glimpse of in the conversation. I especially like the magical space pirates theme. . The Torn Earth will be released on Friday, May 13th, find it where all fine books are found. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.   About Rory Michaelson Rory Michaelson (they/them) has worked a very sensible non-creative day job for the last decade and a half but was recently inspired to write the stories they always wish had been accessible to them whilst growing up. Adventures with silly jokes, lots of drama, and camp horror—and all of it as queer as possible. Rory released their debut book, ‘Lesser Known Monsters’ in 2020, and followed up with the sequel ‘The Bone Gate’ last year. Now the epic finale, ‘The Torn Earth’ is here. You can subscribe to Rory’s newsletter at rorymichaelson.com, find them on Twitter and Tiktok @RoryMichaelson, and buy their books almost everywhere books are sold. About Lesser Known Monsters Series     ☀☀☀ Think Penny Dreadful meets Queer as Folk in a wild, rambunctious, and sometimes ridiculous ride with thrills, spills, and lots and lots of teeth. The Lesser Known Monsters series follows Oscar Tundale, a young man who is average in many ways, and less than average in more. Oscar lives a rather mundane and awkward life, until he encounters an injured child that warns him that not everything is what it seems. Oscar learns that monsters are real, and they’re everywhere, and even worse—he might be falling in love with one. Now he must navigate the darker side of London, even though he could barely handle the world as he knew it before. He may not be the strongest or smartest, but with his kind heart, and the help of his found family Zara and Marcus (who more than make up for his shortcomings), Oscar needs to learn what it means to be a hero, and if he can do that he might just be able to save the world ❀❀❀❀ In our second segment, we chat about shows that completed their seasonal run, including Slow Horse, The Endgame, Julia, and especially Star Trek: Picard. We also chatted briefly about the premiere of the new show Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. We also highlight recent articles posted to tggeeks.com in the past week.

The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with Mark Bessenger, writer/ Director of such films as Last Straight Man, Bite Marks, and Ninja Zombie. Mark has a new project, Gayliens for HereTV that we chat about. We also chat a little about how he got into filmmaking and a little Doctor Who thrown in for fun. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.   About Mark Bessenger Movies have always been a strong influence in Mark Bessenger’s life, from the magical moment when his parents first took him to the drive-in theater, to the influential day when he discovered his mother’s 8mm movie camera and realized that he could make his own films. Shooting his friends and relatives in the back yard in short silent home movies led to Mark getting a degree in Creative Writing at Indiana University before attending Columbia College Chicago’s film school. Mark’s movies were often inspired by his love of horror, comedy and exploitation films, and his sexual orientation more often than not added a gay slant. Mark lives in Los Angeles with his husband of fifteen years where he runs a video production company and has previously directed two features, both unreleased (so far). Bite Marks wass his first directorial effort. About Gayliens ☀☀☀ The six-episode compelling anthology series will premiere exclusively on HERE TV with the first episode, Gayliens: Love and the Mothman (Season 1, Episode 1) debuting on Friday, April 8, 2022, at https://www.here.tv/gayliens Created, written, and directed by critically acclaimed scriptwriter/filmmaker Mark Bessenger, the mastermind behind the cult classic LGBT/Horror film, Bite Marks, Gayliens is a HERE TV Original series with stand-alone episodes ranging from sci-fi to comedy, where each installment details an encounter between gay men and extra-terrestrials. Starring Daniel Moser, Tamario Fletcher, Hunter Evans, and Kevin Roach, Episode 1 follows two closeted high school boys who come out at Lover's Lane and are terrorized by the legendary Mothman. Adhering to the classic sci-fi/horror-thriller genre, Gayliens checks off all the bloody boxes gore fans’ twisted hearts desire. A gripping must-watch series! ❀❀❀❀ In our second segment, we chat about The closing opera for Arizona Opera's 50th Season, Cosi fan Tutte by Mozart.
