April 11, 2023 Escape Orbit!!! Or Why Being A Nerd & Liking Sci-F is Cool Actually. Interview with Author Patrick Chiles
An exclusive Interview with best-selling Sci-Fi author Patrick Chiles as he talks about his latest book Escape Orbit, the state of nerd culture, and why being a nerd is a good thing.
I know we are all sick of mediocre sci-fi tv shows and films like what we often see with Star Trek Discovery or the latest season of The Mandalorian. But while Hollywood seems to not care less about producing quality entertainment, authors and geeks like Patrick Chilles are working hard to give the genre and readers top-shelf stories.
It's easy to hate upon nerds & geeks for liking quality science fiction stories in the face of so many mediocre products like what you find on Disney Plus or HBO Max. But according to Patrick Chilles, being a nerd and taking part in the incredible world of creative science fiction is really good actually.
