Title: Describing Dogs
Post by: Emily Care on April 16, 2004, 02:51:48 PM
Hey there,

There was some discussion here a while back about how to talk about Dogs.  People can get all squicked out about the Mormon thang.  With that in mind, I told a friend about DitV and this is how I described it:

Quote"It's wicked cool. A western-gunslinger epic set in an alternative history post-Civil War Utah.  The main characters are young frontier Mormons being sent out on their mission where they'll act like the drifters in Westerns, coming into town, stirring things up and bringing Justice with a gun."

Maybe something about the supernatural side of it should be in there too.  The "it's wicked cool" is requisite in all copy, of course. ; )

The reply:
Quote from: HeThat does sound interesting, though I can't help but be amused at the image of "The Mormon With No Name", a la "Fistful of Dollars", etc. : )
