The Nuts and Bolts of Writing - A podcast by Fortunus Games

Categories:
In this episode, Tete and I, Fortunus Games, talk about my character, Joel Farber, from my graphic novel, "The Book of Joel" (which you can read here: https://www.fortunusgames.com/current-projects). Artwork in thumbnail is by me. We talk about the process I went through to develop Joel's sexuality and how it is an integral part of his personality. In particular, we discuss the following and more: How does Joel differ from "bodice ripper" male protagonists? How Joel challenges toxic masculinity as embodied in "bodice ripper" novels How does Joel express his sexuality and auto-eroticism? How does Joel connect with someone to express his sexuality?
