ISBW S19 Ep27

T. Kingfisher, Richard Dansky, and I are all nominated for the Manly Wade Wellman Award! It will be given at Congregate this weekend. 

Escape Pod is a finalist for the Hugo Award, Best Semiprozine category!

Black Mirror says just tell the story instead of worrying about the science. Gene Wolfe said it too. 

There are many voices that tell us different things, and some of those voices aren’t writers. 

Interviews will be more frequent moving forward. 

I don't talk enough about the I Should Be Writing book. It exists. Did you know that?
