Christopher Moore Podcast
The excellent Rick Kleffel, who is far more articulate than I am, talks with Christopher Moore.
Live Alex Robinson Interview
For those in San Francisco for Alternative Press Expo on April 9, I will be interviewing Alex Robinson, sui generis, in front of a live audience. I’m immensely honored to talk with the man behind Box Office Poison and Tricked. We’ll be talking about how Alex got his start, deconstructing a few panels and getting some audience involvement.
The results will eventually make their way into a podcast. But please feel free to stop by and say hello. Here are the details:
When? Sunday, April 8, 2005, 3:30
Where? The Concourse at 620 7th Street, San Francisco, CA
3:30-4:25 Spotlight on Alex Robinson—His new graphic novel, Tricked, weighs in at “only” 350 pages (compared to the 600+ of the collected Box Office Poison), but none of his readers feel gypped. Alex Robinson’s Tricked was one of the buzz books of 2005. He’ll talk about that book and what’s next with writer Edward Champion of the blog, “Return of the Reluctant” (www.edrants.com).
I’ll also be walking the floor and covering Alternative Press Expo again — this time, in podcast form.

Finally, someone ripostes:
What field do you think is a good one for young women now?
The field of celebrity journalism.
Oh, no. I hope that is not an expanding field.
Yes, it is. That’s why I suggested it. We’re all competing to find writers and editors who can do it. The circulation of the Star is 1.5 million every week, and then it’s 9.5 million readers, because it has a lot of pass-along readers

The good news: Criterion is putting out Dazed and Confused. The bad news: Chuck Klosterman is writing the liner notes.
