Ken and Mike talk about the inception and creation of the mythical world of The Sand Sea. Mike has been a reader of historical fiction and fantasy since his earliest memories of childhood. His experience on the football field in the O.C. through an Ivy League degree in history and four years on the gridiron on to law school in Washington DC, all fueled his dream of creating his own Tolkien-type alternate world. Ken and Mike also discuss the disciplines required to turn that dream into a published work, recognizing the influence of Steven Pressfield - author and writer’s coach. This conversation could well have taken place in the home of the Inklings - Oxford Pub, the Eagle and Childs, over a frosty brew. SEE SHOW NOTES https://thebeachedwhitemale.com/mike_mcclellan/
