Every year I write about May the Fourth, and every year, it seems, I explain why I cannot ignore the day. So this year, I won't. :) Instead, I'm bringing forward the most interesting post from previous years. You can also find other May the Fourth posts here and here. Have an interstellar day! t.
Last week I was interviewed by Ryan Pelton for his The Prolific Writer podcast. You can tell by the name alone that this is a podcast for writers, but even if you're not a writer, you might still be interested in listening to it. The interview is nearly an hour long, and there is a
