Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – How was Substitute for Love inspired by Dick?
    The inspiration for the character of Reyna Putnam in Substitute for Love came when Karin watched then candidate Cheney dance around the issues of LGBT rights as if his own daughter's life wouldn't have been improved had he cared enough to spend any of his political capital on her. Who wants to be that guy's flesh-and-blood? What is the price when your needs conflict with his plans?
