A Sad Tale of Writer and Clankers

There is a point in anyone’s descent into madness where they could turn back.

Having started the sound track for the world’s second longest book (okay, I’m not sure, but I have a feeling) we can all agree I’ve gone too far and have now passed the point of no return. I’m so sorry.

However, you can’t have me committed on the basis of “I Got to Bake” is a prima facie sign of insanity. I mean, Skip DOES like to bake. Yes, he’s my character. You say that like I have any control over him. As you know, it’s complicated.

And no, I’m not going scene by scene. Otherwise I’ll still be doing this next Christmas.

And yes, there will be lyrics videos, but that’s fiddly work, and I’m trying to do the final edit on Witch’s Daughter. So, possess your soul in patience. The lyrics are in the text on youtube.

  1. That baking song is quite something.

    Reminds me of any of the animes that treat cooking like a life-or-death competitive sporting event

    1. Well, Skip just finds it a good way to relax, and boy does he need relaxing. He bakes across the length and breadth of Elly and subverts their government with baked good. (the benighted orphans don’t even have cookes!)

  2. Do they have a “Broadway Musical” style? The headbanging style doesn’t support your poetry (lyrics). Or maybe like something out of PDQ Bach? (They probably don’t have the AI for “Bargain Countertenor”, alas.)

    Excuse me. I’m a philistine. … I wonder how W.S.Gilbert would have done the “Gotta Bake” lyrics.
