It's XBook, Chapter 7 - Ginger Is Summoned. 

That book I wrote about half a lifetime ago returns with a new episode. Have I warmed up to the novel now that the story actually seems to be starting? 

Be warned as there is an actual plot point when Ginger receives a telephone call. 

To be fair, this is a chapter that is not for the queasy. 

Each episode, I read out a chapter and then deep-dive analyse it. The term "Death of the Author" keeps popping up in this particular episode. It's an audiobook with added criticism from the author himself. 

After I read the chapter, I talk about crucial Act 1 story elements such as the Inciting Incident, Point of No Return, and the Call to Action. I look at the movies Back to the Future, Battle Royale and Die Hard with a couple of mentions of Rincewind from Discworld to see how they deal with the same story elements that I discuss. 

I also ponder how my use of anti-narrative surrealism works with more traditional narrative story-telling. Find out why I had an issue with Luis Bunuel's Viridiana.
