Fandom Promos

[galerian_ash]

Have you already decided what fandom(s) to write for? If so, how about doing a little promoting? :D

We've all chosen tiny obscure canons, needless to say. But by posting here you might be able to entice someone else to give it a try — or perhaps you'll even run into a fellow fan, who can't wait to read your coming fic.

Your promo can be long or short, and contain whatever you feel like. Want to post a couple of intriguing screencaps from a movie? Quote a few paragraphs from a book? Rec the best episode of an anime or a TV series? Talk about why you love your favorite character and/or pairing from your fandom? It's all good; anything goes!

As long as the final issue doesn't completely derail my story idea next week, I'm looking to write for We Only Kill Each Other, a five-issue comic book miniseries by writer Stephanie Phillips, artist Peter Krause and colourist Ellie Wright, with covers by Dave Johnson.

We Only Kill Each Other tells the story of two rival Jewish gangsters in 1930s New York—one a young up-and-comer and the other a veteran mob boss—who are forced to team up against a mutual threat when the American Nazi movement starts making moves in town.

For those familiar with the real-life inspiration for the story, a few adaptational changes may or may not land, but it's overall been an atmospheric and action-packed series so far about two enemies on opposite sides of a generational divide coming together as tense allies. (And if, like me, you're into shipping characters with age gaps and complicated shared backgrounds, this might deliver for you.)

The series started out as a Comixology original, but with the service now having been entirely absorbed by Amazon, individual issues are only available digitally for Kindle. A print TPB is due out in April, published by Dark Horse.

Oooh it looks good!

I hope you enjoy it if you check it out! The last issue is due out on the 15th.

I wish there was a paper version, it's easier for me.

That'll be another month, unfortunately. I believe April 20th is the release date. (Which, now that I type that exact date, is definitely a choice.)
