This is where we find out how the characters should be getting ready for the final conflict, but what we actually learn is how this novel falls apart.  Any story is about wants vs needs and motivations, but what happens when the main character doesn’t have any of those?  Don’t know what’s been happening? Well, this is not the best place to start. Nor is the beginning. Perhaps try something like episode 9 or 10 where ev...2021-09-3059 minDaniel\'s Nemesis PodcastDaniel's Nemesis PodcastXBook: Chapter 27 - Ginger, Are You Okay? (Or, Surrealism and how the Aberrant Character Isn’t Your Plaything) XBook - Designed to be the greatest book of all time. Written 20 years ago, its themes are still necessary today.  How many other stories look at the same alien invasion from the human AND the invading aliens’ perspectives?  Ginger, an aberrant character, fresh from the Great War of 1918 is now on the alien mothership, and still having surreal visions.  We talk today about surrealism and the aberrant character’s place in the avant garde.  There is not as much talk of disguises as some parts may suggest.

XBook. A novel that was written when I was trying to work out the world, and my place in it. The form of expression was that of an alien invasion in 1918. The world has just come out of its Great War, and Ginger, a human fighter pilot, is the one man to attempt to stop this invasion. He is on the alien Mothership right now, hiding from an entire civilisation in their air ducts with one round of ammunition in his pistol.

Because. Saving the Earth from alien invasion done through one human’s surreal perspective…. Because, because? Oh, and it’s set in 1918. Because of commitment to a bad cause.  Each episode, I read out a chapter of this novel that I wrote many, many years ago. I then analyse said chapter. Today, I talk about John Truby, Anatomy of a Story and Blake Snyder, Save The Cat. Or, I would have if I wasn’t kicked out of my own podcast!

It used to be a podcast as well, and then it stopped, and in this episode… it’s something again? I don’t want to make false promises.  Each episode, I read out a chapter and then I’ve been banned from analysing the chapter afterwards. I can try. I did try.

(Or is a Podcast Still a Podcast if you Remove the Podcast?)XBook, the story of an alien invasion right after the First World War. Because of course. And if that isn’t enough, it’s full of surrealism, too. Naturally.  I mean, when you’re in your late teens and socially isolated, then in your early twenties and being exposed to weird films at university and you’re bored in the holidays (social isolation again), this is what happens. A decade and a half later, I’ve picked up the novel again to see what was going through my mind back then.   Each episode, I read out a chapte...2021-07-0824 minDaniel\'s Nemesis PodcastDaniel's Nemesis PodcastXBook Chapter 20 - William Makes First Contact (Or Antagonistic Allies)XBook, is what happens when you put an alien invasion right after the First World War and then use one of your main characters as a springboard for surreal fantasies.  If that sounds like a book that was written by someone young and dumb, you’d be right. I last looked at it about 15 years ago, and just occasionally I admire my writing. Just occasionally.  Each episode, I read out a chapter and then analyse it. Well, this is going to be the last analysis.

By this point in the story, our human protagonist has armed himself with a new weapon to help him attack the aliens, and our alien protagonist/antagonist is trying to work out why the first wave of the invasion has not gone well.  XBook is a novel that I wrote when I was a young and aspiring author.

With another warning.  I read out a chapter from a book that I wrote a long time ago.  XBook. A story of aliens invading the Earth in December 1918. Well, the First world war has finished, so that makes it a bit easier on the humans.  I’ve never said that this was a good book.

It tells the simple story of an alien invasion in 1918, just after the Great War has finished. Ginger, a fighter pilot, has many, many surreal visions.

It’s a book that I wrote all by myself. And a sci-fi one. And a FIrst World War one. And a surreal one. It has aliens invading the Earth in 1918 with our hero unable to distinguish the real world from the one he’s constructed in his head. It was written when I was a lot younger than I am now. And each episode, I read out a chapter before analysing it. It’s an audiobook with a difference - the difference being that nobody has asked for it.  In this episode...2021-04-0146 minDaniel\'s Nemesis PodcastDaniel's Nemesis PodcastXBook Chapters 9 + 10 - Ginger Gets Confused + William Takes a Break (Or female representation and OG Daniel's Nemesis pops in for a chat)Two short chapters are covered in this episode, and I talk about how I could have represented Dee better. Unfamiliar with this podcast? Well, as young'un, I wrote a novel called XBook. A blend of history, sci-fi, and surrealism, it deals with aliens invading the Earth crash bang after the First World War. It was, of course, never published.  Each episode, I read out a chapter, and then flex my critical muscles as I go into the literary (or more typically film) theory issues that surround each chapter.

We also get to meet some new alien characters.  XBook, the old classic narrative of aliens invading after the First World War. But in this novel, we get to see both sides of the invasion.
