So we’re talking about Jim this week! Everyone’s favorite non-binary, polyamorous pirate. We love Jim. They are one member of the crew other than Ed and Stede who’s got a fleshed-out backstory. This week we talk about what more we’d love to see from Jim.
Also: Season 3? Yes! We're manifesting it! We talk about the adoption efforts and so much more!
Our co-hosts are Maya Gittleman (the brilliant writer and critic who wrote Act of Grace: Masculinity, Monstrosity, and Queer Catharsis in Our Flag Means Death and who also has a story in Night of the Living Queers), YA author Rosiee Thor (who recently penned the 9th Firefly novel, Aim to Misbehave), Tragically Nerdy (TragicallyNerdy on AO3) who writes a lot of Jim fics and curates a rec list on Tumblr, Tony who makes jewelry at Blue Box Imaginarium, Carly Delso-Saavedra who organizes a lot of fandom activities at WGA_fandomLove on Twitter and fangirlfoto on Instagram, and writer Carly Heath (Yayvid_jenkins on AO3).
