We begin the episode by discussing whether or not we would take a job writing comics for DC or Marvel if it meant we could no longer create our own original content. After that, we welcome a special guest to the show.

Horror Of The Month: The Boatmore Butcher By L. Stephenson – Drunken Pen Writing Podcast

We begin today's episode with a long, long discussion about online jerks and some critiques of Wuthering Heights. Things quickly devolve into shaming said online jerks, but if you don't care about any of that nonsense, you can skip straight to our Horror of the Month book review by going to the timestamp 26:29. For our November Horror of the Month read, we're discussing the gripping slasher, "The Boatmore Butcher" by L. Stephenson: Three paramedics are drawn into the mystery of a bizarre spree unfolding in a quiet island town. Devastated by the loss of his son, Liam Price, must hold it together whilst leading his team against a killer who finds new and twisted ways to prevent them for saving the lives of their victims. If you're interested in checking out The Boatmore Butcher or L. Stephenson's other work, you can follow him on Instagram @lstephensonauthor.
