Wearing the Cape: Team-Ups & Crossovers

Eee! I'm so excited! So Wearing the Cape is one of my favorite superhero novel series. I've mentioned it before, usually when a new volume comes out, and guess what?

<-- Hmm. One of those gals looks familiar.

A while ago, Marion G. Harmon, the author of WtC (and as it turns out, reader of Grrl Power) contacted me and asked if I'd be interested in co-writing a cross over story with him. Naturally I said yes, even though I've never really written much in the way of prose before. The basic premise of the book is, as the "Team-Ups & Crossovers" subtitle suggests, Astra (the WtC protagonist) goes tumbling across dimensions and bumps into various other realities including a few people you might recognize if you're a voracious consumer of all things superhero. Now keep in mind, the chapter in the Grrl-verse is just one section of the book, but this is a canon story for Sydney and co. It takes place just a bit in the future of the comic. Sydney is a private, but there's nothing that spoils anything between then and now. Here's a link to the kindle version. The paperback will be available in the coming weeks.

I mostly wrote Sydney's sections and Marion mostly wrote Astra's, but there was a lot of back and forth and editing and I think it came out really good. (Though you can safely assume any dip in the quality of the prose is one of my sections. :)

Please feel free to comment on the book here, especially Sydney's adventure with Astra. Remember, you can put spoiler tags over text by putting stuff you want to spoil in your comment. Don't forget the "/" on the closing tag or it won't work properly.
