On this episode of our "From A Certain Point of View" series, Brad is joined by Justina Ireland (@justinaireland), author of "Journey to The Rise of Skywalker: Spark of Resistance." We discuss the beginnings of her writing career, her time in the Army, diversity in the publishing industry, lighting the spark to bring down the First Order, and much more!

You can find Justina's other work on her website here: http://justinaireland.com/welcome

Spark of Resistance is now available at Barnes & Noble here.

“From A Certain Point Of View” is a series in which I interview fans, friends, podcasters, authors, actors, and content creators in the Star Wars community to learn, from a certain point of view, what Star Wars means to them and how it has impacted their life. Is there someone you want to see on the series? Send me an email, and I'll do my best to get them on the show!
