Today’s episode is a special double-feature. I was lucky enough to talk with Zach Ricks and Scott Roche of Flying Island Press during Balticon 44. They talk about the new e-magazine “Flagship” and the upcoming submission deadline (June 15th) for their first issue. I also interviewed Scott Sigler who has the novel “Ancestor” coming out June 22nd.
I wanted to get both in front of you before the deadlines so you get two for the price of one. Both are great conversations that I hope you’ll enjoy.
Thanks for listening.
