Episodes
| Episode Number | Name | Summary | Date Released |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Intro to the 50 Shades | Lindsay and Nella introduce the interactive webseries project destined to bring the publishing world to its very knees. Or provide an amusing non-sequitur poking fun at the modern blockbuster romance novel. One or the other. | February 15th, 2013 |
| 2 | Gotta Have a Gimmick | Lindsay and Nella scratch the tip of the iceberg regarding the appeal of books like 50 Shades of Grey and Twilight, and ask, what genre should we go for? | February 21st, 2013 |
| 3 | Crafting a Lovecraftian Love Story | Lindsay and Nella respond to some feedback, and then toy with the idea of playing in Lovecraft's sandbox... so they can ruin it utterly. | February 28th, 2013 |
| 4 | The Hollow Female Protagonist | Lindsay and Nella go through some suggestions regarding the plot of our masterwork, and dissect what makes a truly compelling blank slate self-insert female protagonist. | March 8th, 2013 |
| 5 | Cementing the Outline | Lindsay and Nella start to make some decisions, and the "plot" starts to take tentacle-y shape. | March 16th, 2013 |
| 6 | Dreaming...of Her | A more detailed outline, followed by information on how to contribute to writing this tentacled monstrosity. | March 22nd, 2013 |
| 7 | Young Adult and Purple Prose | Lindsay and Nella discuss some of the (many many) submissions they received, and talk about some of the quirks, trends and tone we see in modern "blockbuster" Young Adult. | April 5th, 2013 |
| 8 | Stiff Competition | Lindsay and Nella take a field trip to Barnes and Noble to check out what the situation looks like in the Teen Paranormal Romance and Regular Old Romance sections of your local bookstore. | April 11th, 2013 |
| 9 | The Journey Begins | A very quick update on the status of our opus, which is now in the process of bastardizing Cthulhu in the name of beautiful, innocent, pure love. | April 25th, 2013 |
| 10 | Completion of a Great Opus | The next Great American Novel is complete (the first draft, anyway). So now what? | May 4th, 2013 |
| 11 | Naked Came the Cthulhu | Now that the book is (pretty much) done, Nella, Elisa and Lindsay look for query letter inspiration in book blurbs of successful titles they're ripping off such as Twilight, The Hunger Games, Tiger's Curse and a bottle of tears. Writer's tears. | May 23rd, 2013 |
| 12 | Traditional vs. Self-publishing | As the rejection letters from literary agents begin to pile up, we get interest from actual professional people, which begs the question- nowadays, what are the benefits and detriments to self publishing? | July 11th, 2013 |
| 13 | Poe's Law | Poe's Law- that not everyone can tell the difference between sincere extremism and parody of extremism. As we figure out which road we will take, we answer some comments and discuss why we decided to go about this the way we did in the first place. | July 25th, 2013 |
| 14 | The Cover Art Contest | After a fun time up in the great white tundra that is Hamilton, Ontario, we are back and ready to find a cover artist for our masterpiece. | August 7th, 2013 |
