A SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR CREATIVE MISFITS

Ever feel like your life is a TV show with not-so-great writing? Francy Planet knows the feeling. After his band imploded, his marriage ended, and his identity crumbled, he did what any good writer does with a messy plot: he rewrote-or retconned-the whole thing. Part memoir, part comedy show, part late-night conversation with your friend who might ask you to read their screenplay, RETCON is a treasure map for anyone who's felt like a misfit trying to make sense of their scattered story.

Alongside reflections on his debut album, Planet serves up wildly imaginative tales-from depressed robots making 90's music, to Quantum Leap with scene kids, and a one-night-stand with a mystical goddess that doesn't go as planned. Plus, the world's most emotionally honest soup recipe.

If you love the vulnerable humor of Mike Birbiglia, the existential spirals of Bo Burnham, or the cosmic absurdity of Douglas Adams, this genre-bending collection will feel like home.

Über den Autor
Francy Planet started his career with swoopy hair in an emo band. Bouncing from touring to TV development to songwriting, he now writes high-flying, heart-squeezing sci-fi for anyone who loves a goofy adventure with something to say. As an award-winning record producer, Planet helps artists plumb depths they didn't know were there. As a person who stutters and an advocate for individuals with speech disabilities, he brings a fresh perspective to both his fiction and his music. RETCON: Songs, Stories & Separation Soup is his debut collection, and a companion to the concept album of the same name.
