00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.319
It was like in twenty twelve, I had this crazy
2
00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:04.879
idea because I just saw the Camaro commercial that bragged
3
00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:08.000
about having Wi Fi inside the car, and I thought
4
00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:10.960
right away, that's that's going to change the future, because
5
00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:12.960
people are going to have the power of choice even
6
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.320
greater than what they've got with AM and FM radio.
7
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.440
I've got to become a part of this. So it's
8
00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:20.679
taken all of these years to create Aero dot Net.
9
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:23.920
It's not just a podcast, it is a network. It's

twenty different podcasts that really does step into your life.
11
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:32.079
For instance, like CTCs when you go to the grocery store,
12
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:34.640
do you really know what's going on in front of
13
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:37.679
you as well as behind the scenes. Oh, you need
14
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:42.399
to get some CTCs only on ero dot net. Aroe
15
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:46.960

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:50.880
is Ero. My podcast platforms feature thousands of guests. What
17
00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:54.560
you don't have access to are my missed opportunities. Let
18
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:59.000
me explain missed opportunity. It's my questions and statements without
19
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:01.600
their answers. I'm leaving open enough space at the end
20
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:05.359
of every question hoping they'll download the talk and insert
21
00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:10.920
their answers. It's happened eight different times. Missed Opportunity is
22
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:13.519
a lost piece of history. It's like a message in
23
00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:16.079
a bottle that's been tossed out to see. So let's
24
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:20.079
locate the destination. This week, we're putting focus on my

00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:23.879

Katie released a book in June of twenty twenty five
28
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.439
that was titled Nothing Special, Volume Three. It was a
29
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.760
lush fantasy world of her own making with a story
30
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:40.560
that's near and dear to her heart. Now. One of
31
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:45.439
Katie's most successful webcomics has been Monster Stories. It's actually
32
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.519
been one of the first web comics archived in the
33
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:54.680

35
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:01.439
of the ponies on the show. One critic says that
36
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:05.959
Katie offers a fabulistic world that is very appealing for
37
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:09.479
a cozy fan. Now, the invitation to share a conversation
38
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:13.240

00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:33.400
time zone, so that may screw up your times. Nah,
45
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:36.400

they once said, put it in pencil on the calendar. Well,
48
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:48.240
that week came all too fast. Now, normally I do
49
00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:52.360
hear a lot from these PR departments before the talk. Oh,
50
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.439

00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:19.800
to Missed Opportunity this week. It's my Missed Opportunity with
56
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:24.400
Katie Cook. The book is called Nothing Special, Volume three.
57
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:28.240
The protagonists are curious and very clever. How do you
58
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:32.400
live with that? There are three values that your readers
59
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:38.080
can actually tap into while exploring your pages. You have
60
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:41.879
become a master at planting easter eggs inside your stories.
61
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:44.639
Readers need to know that so they can keep their
62
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:49.280
senses up. This isn't just for students. This thing is
63
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:52.039
going to be loved by every single age group. How
64
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:57.360
are you able to bridge that gap working with your illustrator?
65
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.800
That has always been the greatest challenge. How did you
66
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:04.000
come into being a team together and then to bring
67
00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:08.240
the full story to life? Are you presently on a
68
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:12.199
comic con tour? If so, anywhere near us? Or where
69
00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:17.040
are you going? You created this world? How do you
70
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:21.360
live in it? Stay in it, breathe in it, create
71
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:25.199
in it, and then come back to this world? In
72
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:28.079
this age of sharp judgment? How do you keep your
73
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:31.680
writing up and growing? Because so many people like to
74
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.079
step in there and you know, do their troll thing,
75
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:38.399
But it doesn't bother you. You just keep building a story.
76
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:42.120
How do you step into humor? I mean, come on,
77
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.800
I've sat with many comedians that say you've got to
78
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.759
craft a joke. This stuff just rolls out so naturally
79
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:53.360
on your pages. Okay, I'll admit this is a romantic
80
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:55.639
fantasy story. I get it just because I'm a guy
81
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.439
doesn't mean I don't have to like it. This really
82
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:02.560
does get int Thank you. A form of storytelling that
83
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:08.519
ignites the imagination with every book out. What have you
84
00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:13.000
learned about yourself as the story share not a storyteller,
85
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:18.399
You share stories and there you have it, another missed opportunity,
86
00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:22.199
a lost piece of history. You now know the questions,
87
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:25.959
so let's locate the answers. The door is always going
88
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:29.120
to be open. Now. If you know Katie Cook, please
89
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:32.560
reach out to me erroc at gmail dot com. That's

as always, be brilliant

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.319
It was like in twenty twelve, I had this crazy
2
00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:04.879
idea because I just saw the Camaro commercial that bragged
3
00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:08.000
about having Wi Fi inside the car, and I thought
4
00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:10.960
right away, that's that's going to change the future, because
5
00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:12.960
people are going to have the power of choice even
6
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.320
greater than what they've got with AM and FM radio.
7
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.440
