20 Years of Cat-Tales kicks off today on the anniversary of A Girl’s Gotta Protect Her Reputation #CatTalesIs20 https://t.co/7qTGKRiscr

[Cat-Tales by Chris Dee @cattales0]

Cat-Tales turns 25 today. March 8, 2001 — A Girl's Gotta Protect Her Reputation, Chapter 1. It was never supposed to be a series. All I have today is the date and a promise: something is coming. Tech bottleneck, so look for it around the 25th of Normal or Catfight. Stay tuned.

Hello all. The mobile version of the website at cat-tales,mobi missed an update as our host unrolled a new administrative dashboard. It will return shortly. In the meantime, please use the main site https://t.co/PbxjW8vJWm

2 sips into morning coffee, someone sent me "magic in quantum physics" article, and while I'm curious to know how close I got in CT: String Theory, I can barely work out using the handle on the cup at this time of day. Later.

@straczynski Honestly, chatGPT is like the dunning-kruger effect mated w/ Rowling's mirror. A brilliant writer & experienced world-builder like yourself could write prompts that sparked ideas & opened vistas you would recognize & be able to take advantage of, because you don't need it.

When Cat-Tales resumes, Whiskers and Nutmeg may have to become a trio.

Pearl was probably the most enjoyable Cat-Tale to research, and picking the museum restaurant for Lesson 2 was one of the absolute peaks.

It's International Cat Day, or what the internet calls "day."
You know what to do.

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

Hey, CT fans, don't get too excited that anything will happen quickly, but I believe I just found the way through the... call-it-thematic obstacle life presented continuing Mrs Wayne. There's hope for the future.
Love & kisses,

Let's widen the scope a bit. If there is more interest in a workshop for writers doing worldbuilding of their own, or otherwise processing a large body of research, I'm only blueskying at this point. Don't be afraid to speak up.

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

What a pity. All the sensuality that was possible but never made it to the screen. That script was malpractice, and if you don't get that, eppur si muove.

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

Is it a crazy idea to use AI as a research & world building tool mapping out Bruce Wayne's years of travel? Building on my Bat/Cat series' canon, considering a Patreon for behind-the-scenes peeks & exclusive content. CT readers & Bat-fans, would this project be a misstep?

[Cat-Tales by Chris Dee @cattales0]

New project brewing: Delving into Bruce Wayne's years of travel using AI as research tool. Drawing on CT #Batman/#Catwoman series canon, martial arts experts & more to map out details of his global journey & training. Considering Patreon for exclusive insights & content.Thoughts?

I had so much fun with Nocturna and Anton and their operatic meltdowns and melodrama that went to 11. Really should have brought them back after the shift from sitcom to a more grounded tone.

A bit of Metropolis history from Bruce Wayne's speech in Knight of the Mirrors and from James Gunn's #Superman

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

As someone commented on a passage about a WAYNE WINS headline: "Learn it, live it, love it." Everyone loves Batman.

This is the day we return to that street in Modena. Who will be the character living in the apartment above a men's clothing store called Superheroes?

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

This is great. Had some fun with the psychology of it in Cat-Tales: Trophies. Batman doing something perfectly normal makes it anything but normal. The situation becomes utterly surreal.

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

Flashing back to the set photos of The Gotham Post boxes in Chicago when Batman Begins started shooting. Of course I was intrigued for different reasons. 😉

[Chris Dee @chrisdeecattale]

As much as I would like to do something more in that era, I can't say I have plot bunnies. I'm too obsessed with the Batmobile "origin story" and fleshing out that part of Bruce's years of travel.
