Mark Medley is here to discuss his remarkable new book, Live to See the Day - Impossible Goals, Unimaginable Futures, and the Pursuit of Things That May Never Be, our experiences at writers’ festivals, questions I have about how book publicity works and whether or not some publishers promote their authors and books, what inspired him to write this 10-chapter book of case studies about people who knowingly and passionately engage in difficult if not impossible projects and don’t seem to worry about reaching a goal of some kind, selfless pursuits to help generations to come, normal people attempting to make life extraordinary, understanding risk aversion, what’s next for him, and much more.
