But the theme is all down to Kiefer Sutherland. The news story of the day was the comeback of 24 and we had never seen an anthology with hour long stories before (though that doesn\u2019t mean there might not be one out there that we missed). The paired stories came about to fill up a twenty-four-hour day, plus it offered the perfect tag line \u201cYou can find out what happens twelve hours later.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-764\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sageandsavant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/PenelopeDreadfulle_082-199x300.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sageandsavant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/PenelopeDreadfulle_082-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.sageandsavant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/PenelopeDreadfulle_082-768x1156.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sageandsavant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/PenelopeDreadfulle_082-680x1024.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.sageandsavant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/PenelopeDreadfulle_082.jpg 800w\" alt=\"Penelope Dreadfulle\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><em>Q: Yak? Giant Chicken? Trebuchet? What gives?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>DW: It started with a dare in our email planning with the authors for Thirty Days Later. One author found a picture of a clockwork yak and threw down the gauntlet: \u201cBet you can\u2019t fit a yak in.\u201d Challenge accepted. Rumor has it that there are multiple yak sightings (bonus points if you can find them all). Since that was deemed \u201cWay too easy,\u201d the chieftess of shenanigans, Sparky McTrowell, raised the yak ante for Some Time Later with a trebuchet, and somehow a chicken was thrown in, possibly due to an excess of caffeine and chocolate. And Yes.
