Sci-Fi Saturday Night

Tonight we talk to two funny and charming Southern Gentlemen (maybe “gentlemen” is a stretch): Brockton McKinney and Larkin Ford of the Ehmm Theory comic series. They tell us about how Ehmm Theory is pronounced, how it came to be, and we talk about their amazing premise (it includes all of SFSN’s favorite things:  zombies and cats). We also talked about toy licensing and how everything is amazing when made tiny. Keep your ears perked during this section of the ‘cast for a SFSN exclusive announcement about a new character coming to Ehmm Theory soon!

PJ Herself!

Tonight’s guest is PJ Schnyder, best described as a saucy renaissance woman; writer, artist, game designer and all around devilishly cute human. For over half an hour we were all mesmerized as we talked about her newest novel, Bite Me, book one of the London Undead series. She’s also writing for the game funded by The Ministry Initiative Kickstarter which will be put out alongside the stories by Tee Morris and Pip Ballentine. There was also knitting, erotica and incessant laughter.

Here’s where to find PJ around the internet:
