The doad and son debut chapters 4 and 5 as the action of the story picks up.

Fox and his dad discuss the bigger series of books that they could write, coming up with new ideas for books, and pulling in ideas from the original night time stories they made up before bedtime.

Take a glimpse into how all of the story ideas originally were formed...staying up too late and brainstorming. Fox and his dad talk about an idea for a future August book featuring a lake monster (all while trying not to talk too loud and get in trouble with mom).

Fox and His Dad reveal the next chapters of the book, featuring a best friend, a bully, and nachos! Dad reads through Chapters two and three of "August Saves the Zoo" an original story written by Fox and Brian Moncey.

Fox and His Dad have stopped messing around and actually wrote the begging of the book! Dad reads the Prologue and First Chapter of "August Saves the Zoo" an original story written by Fox and Brian Moncey.

Fox and his dad create the outline for the book, "August Saves the Zoo." They figure out all the major plot points, how the characters will fit in, and the origin of August's powers. Fox is also glad that they finally figure out the prologue to the story (phew).

Fox and his dad talk through the characters in the story and crack each other up trying to create names and different features for each. They also work on the plot of the story and decide who the good guy (protagonist) and bad guy (antagonist) should be in the story.

In the very first episode of our podcast we meet a boy named Fox and a dad named Brian who love telling stories to each other. After many nights staying up late making up stories they've now decided to create a new story that they can write down as a real life book for people to read.
