On the Eighth Day of CRYPTmas, my Dark Lord™ gave to me, assured death from crossing the breech. Here's the finale of Angela Stuart's story, co-written with Alasdair Stuart, the host of Pseudopod. I hope y'all had a Very Evil Christmas™.

It's great that you worked with Alasdair, I love Pseudopod and all of the Escape Arrtists tribe. This, combined with the Washington, DC miniseries finally pushed me into going back and listening to all the old Crypt podcasts before this.  Pretty ambitious, creating all these characters like this!  Can't wait to see what comes of it.


Ambitious isn't the word for it

Adam, if you only knew what I had planned for THE CRYPT. Seriously, I've been calling this project "my Mount Everest." It's huge in scope, bigger than even THE ROOKIE series. I'm glad you're enjoying it. The interconnections are (hopefully) going to be massive and deep, making you listen/read three and four times to see the full web of intrigue. Might be beyond my skills, but fuck it -- I'm going for it.

Awesome

It's astonishing to me that you could have a big project like this while you have so many other ones in progress as well.

 

How long ago did you start planning all of these?  I remember in an interview you talked about having a calender with a basic sketch of when you want to have particular books done by.  When did you get into that kind of long-run planning?

 

I ask you for purely selfish reasons; I would love to write more fiction but find that my biggest failing is a lack of discipline.  I'm immensely inspired by yours and would greatly appreciate any pointers you have :)


Sooo Goood....This is what I live for....

Angela is such a mess...it's outstanding!

Wiki has been updated for:

Interestingly, when I was doing the write up for Angela Stuart I realized that Admiral Epperson was linked to another Crypt character ... Yolanda Smith. Wicked cool!

And to two more ... "The Book" and "Freakshow"

Don't forget, Francis Sands discovering Epperson playing hide the missile with Frederick "Freakshow" Madison's wife resulted in Sands and Madison being given the honor of serving on the PUV James Keeling ...

woah...

I definitely missed those two connections!

They were so spread out

Yeah, easy to miss the connections when the episodes are over a year apart. I think when THE CRYPT is out in book form, it will make for a different experience.

Crypt-mas Rocks!

Scott, You are cooking with the proverbial gas with "The Crypt". None of these stories are missing a beat. Awesomeness reigns with "The Crypt" - and if you disagree, sorry to be argumentative, but you are just wrong! Seriously though - thanks, Scott, for making this the best Crypt-mas ever! :)

Thanks, homebrew!

Is it just me or does Angela/Dominique remind anyone else of Carter/Kane of Andy Remic's Spiral series?

I haven't finished either yet so I may be speaking out of my...

Sounds kinda like Detta/Odetta from Stephen Kings Dark Tower series

Carter/Kane - Remic

I was just thinking that as well...Carter can communicate and control Kane, not sure that's the case with Detta/Odetta. Both are good shouts though...

 

 

 


Theme Music?

Who does the theme music for The Crypt?  Can't find the answer anywhere.
