The first chapter can make or break a reader's engagement with a story. We as writers must craft brilliant opening pages to hook those picky readers, so let's study the stories of others to see how they do it! I have been recommended Patrick Rothfuss' The Name of the Wind quite often over the years, but here I am, diving into this shorter fantasy work of his instead. Even Rothfuss recommends NOT reading this short work before his other books, but I have done so...and am glad to have done so, too. The first chapter quickly establishes our protagonist Bast, a known character from the other books. Being a complete newbie, I accepted that there could be unclear aspects of the world for me because I wasn't familiar with the world of The Kingkiller Chronicle. Yet the first chapter starts in a very intimate, quiet way: Bast is trying to sneak out of the inn before his master notices. The innkeeper catches him, though, and sets him up with a mysterious book and a small list of errands before asking about a stranger who stopped by the inn earlier. Bast pretends to not know much of the stranger and takes off for his errands. Doesn't sound like much, does it? And the stranger's name sounds like it is also something from the other books. But that does not leave me flustered in the least. Rothfuss has a beautiful sense of the ear in his language, describing the different sounds created when a novice tries to sneak away vs. an expert vs. the artist Bast is. The visual and aural details mixed with metaphor creates a flow of prose one can easily coast upon, happy to see where the current takes them. Sure, I may choose to follow Rothfuss' advice and NOT read The Narrow Road Between Desires before I read The Name of the Wind, but something tells me that if I stay with the current, Bast's tale will still take me to some pretty exciting, unique places in that fantastical realm. And what will you find in these first five pages? Let's find out! Cheers!

Kvothe is taken to Magwyn to learn the atas of his sword. We talk about whether (and how) Rothfuss chooses to prevent characters from discussing their feelings, how Kvothe has to be on his best behaviour, and discuss the merits (or lack thereof) of prequels. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Kvothe meets the elderly bestower of names, Magwyn. Jordana pops off, we talk about namers and shapers, and discuss how Rothfuss elegantly communicates character relationships. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Vashet explains her thinking, and Kvothe is mystified by a bra. We talk about wrapped dresses, Rothfuss' approach to writing about breasts, and how close Kvothe came to disaster.

Kvothe ponders his next move and comes to a dramatic decision. We talk about how this scene might be faking out the reader - and how it might not. We discuss the structural role this scene would occupy in a more traditional story and how Rothfuss subverts our expectations. We also talk about how Kvothe's reaction in this scenario is justifiable! @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Kvothe gets walloped in the nards. We talk about how much that sucks, how Rothfuss describes that sensation viscerally and concretely, and how Naden feels about his life-changing wound. Then we have a long digression about cartoons. Our digression ends up being a lot longer than the substance of the episode. Lap it up, hogs. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Kvothe is frustrated sparring with Vashet. We take a close look at Vashet's statements, Kvothe's readiness, and what Rothfuss owes...

Rings, pagers, and cracked pots! Nick, Jordana, and Jeremy of “Page of the Wind” have escaped from the clutches of the insatiable Mister Mailbag and join RJ for a beautiful game in discussing the character Bredon, whom we meet in Severen during “The Wise Man's Fear.” Lots of Master Ash hypothesizing here, so buckle up for a ride on the Theory Train – though Jordana and Jeremy might try to convince us Bredon is just some dude. We also talk about Bredon's motive in educating Kvothe and playing Tak with him, possible casting for Bredon, and if he is connected to the Fae, the Lacklesses, or the Jakises. I also lament the lack of diversity in the Chronicle, and Nick reminds me about the KKC webcomic that Rothfuss wrote about. We further talk about Cinder's possible working relationship with Bredon, and those rumors about his pagan rituals. And what would a conversation about Master Ash be without Cthaeh and Denna being mentioned? Are we just reading too much into it?? Maybe! Bor Gullet will know the truth! Come on and enjoy the ride. Special thanks to Nick, Jordana, and Jeremy from Page of the Wind for joining me. You can find their excellent DAILY re-read of The Kingkiller Chronicle on your preferred podcatcher.

Vashet and Kvothe talk about the vast cultural divide between Atur and Ademre. We talk about a well-done Rothfuss, talk about Vashet's INEXPLICABLE hostility to Tempi, and how Vashet uses the language of sex work to talk about how the Adem view musicians. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Carceret sits down to taunt Kvothe, and walks away with less than she bargained for. We discuss Carceret's motivation, how Rothfuss shows us different facets of Ademic thought, and how to avoid depicting a culture as a monolith. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Kvothe meets his teacher, the Hammer. We talk about how Rothfuss describes characters, Vashet's tactics, and why backslung swords dont' work.

This week we finally confirm that Kvothe does NOT know what jacking off is, since if he did, we wouldn't be dealing with all This shit. That's the first tradgedy.

Better known in his disc jockey days in Baltimore and beyond as "Paul Rodgers" or "The Emperor Rodgers," Paul Rothfuss's career in broadcasting spans seven decades.  Like his long-time friend and business partner Kerby Confer (episode #82), Paul eventually gravitated to the sales side of radio before he and Kerby combined their talents and business acumen and started buying radio stations.  In this endeavor they became wildly successful. Two books by Paul,   "Alias Emperor Rodgers: A Majestic Memoir by Baltimore's Emperor of Insanity in the Crazy Daze of '60s To 40 Radio" and "Wiggles, Winks, & Wizards: Paul and Kerby's Great Adventure," chronicle his formative years  in Williamsport, Pa., his long-time friendship and partnership (based on a handshake) with Kerby, and his life-long love affair with radio.   Think of this conversation with Paul  as a companion to episode #82 featuring Kerby Confer.  Kerby and Paul both take us back to the heyday of 1960's Top 40 AM radio, when WCAO became the constant on-air companion to thousands of Baby Boomers in the Baltimore area.  In this episode, Paul also gives us a master class on the sales techniques that he and Kerby learned, honed, and employed as they evolved into titans of broadcasting. As a bonus, please visit our website https://themainstreetpodcast.com/to hear an aircheck from 1974  featuring Paul on his final day on air at WYRE, in Annapolis.  Two other clips we've put on our site feature the inimitable Howard Cosell appraising Paul's on-air talents at the behest of newscaster Dave Humphrey.  Both clips are from 1972 and were Humphrey's way of exacting revenge on Paul after years of  good-natured abuse on Baltimore's WCBM.Paul's websitehttp://emperorrodgers.com/ Paul's books are also available on Amazonhttps://www.amazon.com/Alias-Emperor-Rodgers-Majestic-Baltimores-ebook/dp/B07CMFJNRShttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089RVP6J3/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0The Mainstreet Podcast is sponsored by Your Pet AuPair!

The Wyoming Education Association berated lawmakers on Monday in the Joint Education Committee.  Sen Chris Rothfuss called any assertion that Wyoming students are under-performing "misinformation."  The truth is that Wyoming school performance is not commensurate with school funding.

In honour of the long-awaited Sandman show launching on Netflix, we are unlocking this patron-episode! We read Rothfuss' wonderful introduction to the 30th anniversary edition of Neil Gaiman's Sandman and wax rhapsodic about the ways this seminal graphic novel might have influenced Kingkiller.

Kvothe sings entirely the wrong sort of song. We talk about how Rothfuss communicates the deliberate badness of Kvothe's song, how hard it is to do something badly when you've spent a lifetime learning to do it well, and how much Felurian is buying what Kvothe's selling. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com

Kvothe realizes the nature of his peril, and attempts to master himself. We discuss how Rothfuss rides the line between sensuality and explicitness, how Kvothe retains his control, and why this brief passage of the book is so impactful. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com
