Hey hey, everyone!

It's been a long time, hasn't it? Things have slowly been progressing over here. Most of the delay has been due to three things: scheduling conflicts, taking on too many projects, and just a touch of creative burnout (though that has been remedied). 

If you're interested in what I'm doing when I'm not posting updates or episodes, check out my last video on the Rainy Day Writing Guild YouTube channel. You can find it here: https://youtu.be/D4Z-h3DZClY. This particular video talks about my works in progress, including Poplar Cove. Most of my creative endeavors are written in the same vein as Poplar Cove; they are Lovecraftian and have the same dark humor. 

The video this Sunday (5/5/19) will feature where Poplar Cove gets recorded. You'll get to see all the behind the scenes stuff!

You may also recognize some of the other voices on RDW Guild as well. Rylie (Joanna), Guy (Dr. Spaulding), and Jake (Mac) each have their videos/days on the channel! Checky, check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWzUk6kBUaJscYCkSLbDESA

Well, that's all for now. It's back to the word mines for me. 

Hugs,

Joy

Poplar Covians! 

I apologize for the unreasonably long hiatus. "Everything" is explained in this week's In-Between episode.

In-Between Episodes: Q&A, Part II

In which I probe into the lives of Bill Fulton (Mayor Prentiss), Guy Fulton (Doctor Henri Spaulding), Jake DeVore (Mac Tillinghast), and William Nelson (Mayor Roger).

I fully intended on adding something a little extra at the end but have been battling with the Cold/Plague of 2017 and am finally starting to feel human again - minus my voice. I'm sure that'll come back soon.
