Just 2 friendly reminders:
A guest post from writer Bill Gourgey:
As I was writing my novel, Glide, it occurred to me (during the process) that the material would be perfect for a variety of media formats. Of course, most writers would be thrilled to see their book turned into a film or TV series (that is, after achieving best seller status!), but it’s only recently that writers sit down to write considering the full transmedia possibilities of their story. Transmedia is another hifalutin term not to be confused with multimedia. Where multimedia involves presenting content using media combinations (audio and imagery, text and video, etc.), transmedia involves presenting content on different media platforms altogether (eBook, film, app, game, connected TV, etc.). Anyway, as I was writing Glide, creating its future worlds (both the apocalyptic and the post- ), defining the “green” inventions that populate its landscape, I realized that the story had great transmedia potential.
A LOOK BETWEEN THE PAGES:
Glide, The Novel
DR. MAGIGATE…
…also known as “The Captain,” is a legendary inventor and recluse; equal parts Albert Einstein and Don Quixóte. In GLIDE, the doctor must confront his own shadowy destiny when two adventurous teens disrupt the status quo of his covert lab on Isla de Tiempo Muerto.
Magigate’s nemesis is The Prophet, who once held an iron grip over much of the world’s commerce. When The Prophet escapes her island prison and takes one of the teens hostage, Dr. Magigate must face not only his long-time foe and erstwhile lover, but also the ethically ambiguous legacy of his inventions.
GLIDE is a dark and cautionary tale of what happens when we turn to invention and technology to compensate for the shortcomings of heart and soul.
Keep those votes coming! Your favorite stories and writers need all the support they can get to win this year’s Watty Awards!

Meet Brando in Totally Amp’d, a new comedy series:
BRANDO (Demetrius Joyette) – Slick moves, slick vocals, a veritable one-man show. That‟s his problem – he thinks the show belongs to one man and finds it next to impossible to be a part of a team. He only knows his chords and his dance moves. Underneath all of his bravado, Brando is a good guy.

Meet Madison in Totally Amp’d, a new comedy series:
MADISON (Amanda Thomson) – Madison is the Queen Bee, secure in the belief that everyone wants to be her because she’s obviously the best. She has a killer fashion sense, a voice like honey and vocal range like Christina Aguilera. Why wouldn‟t anyone want to be her? An Alpha who is bossy by nature (but nice when you get her alone), Madison assumes every guy wants to be her boyfriend and that Aria will always be her doormat. Madison thinks she’s destined to be a star but in order to get her wish, she’s going to have to learn how to be part of a group first.
