Best of Book Banter EP 99: Rebroadcast-Lance S.A. Nielsen's Episodes, Full Interview

Hello My Happy People!
Have I got a show for you today. In today's episode, I get to share my chat again with my good friend, Lance Steen Anthony Nielsen. I always look forward to chatting with Lance for several reasons.
Besides the fact that Lance is multi-talented, working as an author, a playwright, an acting coach, and a director, Lance really knows how to make me laugh. We bonded over brain damage and memory loss and it tends to be a running joke with us.
A bit about Lance, he was born in South Africa and adopted at a young age by an English mother and Danish father. Raised in Kingston-upon-Thames in the United Kingdom, it was here, according to his website, "... he spent much of his time engaged in designing fictional worlds for role-playing games, rolling dice, renting videos, going to the cinema and forgetting to tell his mother what time he would be home when he went out. While under the influence of many pints JRR Tolkien, he made his first attempts at writing a book series, The Prophecy of the Witch-King."
Since then, Lance has written many amazing works for stage, screen, and print. He chats about them all with Dianne in episodes 56 & 57, rebroadcast today in one episode. We had so much fun and talked forever. I had to cut out so much just to fit our interview into two shows originally. I am thrilled I have the chance to share this extended version of his interviews on our holiday break.
Be sure to check out his YouTube channel where I was recently a guest author on his Industry Interviews on The Outcasts Creative YouTube show. It is listed below as well as his social media links.
