This week on Forbes Avenue, we aired part of a conversation with science fiction author John Scalzi. Scalzi is known for his humorous and approachable fiction that ranges from space operas (his Interdependency and Old Man’s War series) to near-future fiction (his Lock-In and Dispatcher series) to standalone novels that are both humorous and thought-provoking (e.g., Red Shirts, Kaiju Preservation Society, and Starter Villain).
In this portion of our 2022 conversation, John discusses some of his writing strategies, some of his non-fiction writing, and his thoughts about blogging — whatever.scalzi.com has been a going concern since 1998. You’ll enjoy John Scalzi’s engaging remarks!
