What if I write myself into a corner?
We chat about writing yourself into a corner, the "Sliding Doors" moment, a peek in to the way I think about this show. How the sausage is made, actually.
But also, HOLY CRAP Tom Lehrer music is in the public domain! That is huge.
Also, this weekend (Oct 23-25) I'm Guest of Honor at MileHi Con! Doesn't matter where you are, you can show up, cause we're in a global pandemic and the con is virtual!
