We have covered a lot on this Dog Days of Podcasting stretch, and Tee has talked a bit about putting the readers first. And you should. There are times, however, when it’s not about the readers or the fans. Personal space. Public reputation. Sometimes, it is all about you. How do you handle it?
Special shout-outs to Piper J Drake, Lauren B. Harris, and my daughter!

The Dog Days of Podcasting 2017: Concerning Mary, Gary, and Ensign Jones
Special thanks to Corbin J Drake for the photo.
Shout out to Brian “Arkle” Webber from Shameless Cashgrab and other podcasts for the comment and inspiring today’s Dog Days of Podcasting entry.
Recorded this morning and posted this evening, Tee settles in to talk about something else but follows the rabbit hole Arkle opens up about the “Mary Sue” complex that haunts fiction. The question is, should it? Can developing characters from your own experiences, hopes, and dreams, work in fiction?
It is a tricky tightrope to walk — very tricky — but it’s possible.
