Pod 189: John Kenneth Muir On Writing


Listen Later

John Kenneth Muir is an expert on Space: 1999 but what does he think of the controversial Year Two? What classic toy has he kept in excellent condition since childhood? How did his early storytelling efforts with an 8mm film camera lead to late nights spent writing Space: 1999 story reviews? These projects would inspire his first non-fiction book "Exploring Space: 1999." A quick primer on what John has learned about the art and the business of writing about film and TV is revealed in this week's interview! Plus, a brainy episode on the Randomiser, a diversified FAB Fact, and missives from the Podsteron family!
