Arcade Cafe #14 - Assassin's Creed: Shadows & Writing Women

Your miniature answer to the full-length episodes of Arcade Bookshop! Every week we catch up on video game progress, book progress, video game news, writing and publishing updates, and more!

Today we discuss the conversations around Assassin's Creed: Shadows' protagonist and whether this choice is a disrespectful one or not. In the latter half of the show, we respond to Spencer's (Drunken Pen Writing Podcast) response to Bryce from last week's solo show (AC 13) regarding whether or not Stephen King can write women. It's a good one!

Get in on the advance sale period of Bryce's book! It's a tad bit cheaper and Bryce hardly makes anything from these sales, but it would just be cool to know people are reading. https://www.finishinglinepress.com/product/airplane-graveyard-by-bryce-johle/

Don't forget Arcade Bookshop will be at 3 Rivers Comicon in Pittsburgh the weekend of June 1st! We'll have tons of stickers available if you stop by to chat, and tell Bryce you want your voice featured on a future episode!

Listen to our most recent episode #21, which covers Sea of Stars!

Regular episodes of Arcade Bookshop air every other Monday. The next brand new episode of Arcade Bookshop airs 6/3. Sea of Stars reminded us of the famous manga, Vagabond by Takehiko Inoue!
