The interview is on <a href="http://apocalypsegirlsguide.blogspot.com/2011/12/ask-experts-pandemonium-pt-2.html">The Girls' Guide to Surviving the Apocalypse</a>. <br /><br />Secondly, someone's made a <a href="http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Romanitas">TV Tropes page</a> for the <i>Romanitas</i> series. Which is insanely awesome. Now I'm really curious as to who made it...<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=romanitas_fans&ditemid=3027" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2017-04-04:2842722:2579ext_78582Savage City reaction post2011-05-24T17:49:00Z2011-05-24T17:49:00Zbouncypublic1Posted by: <span lj:user='dolorosa-12.livejournal.com' style='white-space: nowrap;' class='ljuser'><a href='https://www.dreamwidth.org/profile?userid=81928&t=I'><img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/openid.png' alt='[identity profile] ' width='16' height='16' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://dolorosa-12.livejournal.com/' rel='nofollow'><b>dolorosa-12.livejournal.com</b></a></span><br /><br />Now that <i>Savage City</i> has been released, we might as well discuss it!
