Food is something that you need to think about when world-building and so we explore what kind of fun you can have with it. We look at how you need to allow for where it comes from, from field to hydroponic bay, and how gives your world an extra dimension from celebrations to the everyday. We also look at how it sets the mood and how it can be used symbolically. We also briefly look at those who eat electricity and blood, and porridge's place in the circle of life is looked at. A lot.

Magic is used mostly as a deux ex machina in far too many comics.

Toxic masculinity is not the only kind of toxicity that a writer should avoid. We look at when writers need to back off a little on feminist and racist topics, looking at why Rim of the World is a racist movie, Jack (Will & Grace) is too Jack, and Zoe (grown-ish) isn't that grown, as well as compare Ghostbuster (1984) with Ghstbusters (1016). We look at better ways of handling the topic, such as Boondocks and Static Shock, as well as why Conan isn't the misogynist everyone thinks he is.

Sometimes it's easy to forget that we need the support of fans in order to succeed; sure they can be irritating but we need to remember that without fans all creative endeavors are bound to fail, be they patrons, our support, or the people we're counting on to pay our bills. Here we look at ways to show our appreciation for the fans, from merchandise to giving them some agency, and even just doing what we do.

We can't afford to forget what we owe them, and we forget that at our peril.
