We have conducted an interview with Corben. Where did the idea come from for your Sci-Fi spoof “The Worst Man on Mars”? The idea for the story came after a chance meeting with scientist and author Mark Roman. I’m a beach-dweller on a small island in the Outer Hebrides. A few years ago I found Mark wandering along Doom Beach collecting and cataloguing brightly coloured pebbles. In return for a cup of hot seaweed tea he gave me a copy of a fascinating book he had written speculating about the various rocks that might be found on Mars. Before burning it on the campfire for extra warmth (it’s cold here) I thought...

We have conducted an interview with Houston about the process it took to make a short action film. What inspired you to make this short action film "Postie Apocalypse"? I was working on a big budget Hollywood film that will remain nameless, in the process of making the film I had become so frustrated and joyless. Making Postie Apocalypse came from a desire to feel creative and reignite the joy that used to come with watching and making films. Fortunately for me, my friends felt the same way once I mentioned the idea while on a break at the studios. How much time did you take to prepare before the shoot? I spent a lot of time preparing.

Today our guest is award-winning author Mandy Jackson-Beverly from Southern California. Currently, she is writing book 2 of A Secret Muse (trilogy) that will be out early 2017. We have conducted an interview with her. How do you describe your writing style? Reviewers have described my writing as complex and suspenseful, dark and broody, with complicated and nuanced characters and cinematic pacing. I see my writing style as character driven. When a character has something to say, I listen, whether it’s the middle of the night, on a hike, while swimming, or during a meeting. I’m not apt to write in chapter order, but I do work with a strategy. I begin by writing notes regarding the structure of a scene from beginning to end and then I let these ideas simmer before I begin writing. This process can take days, weeks or even months, depending on the depth of research and intricacies involved. Once I finish writing an entire scene, I go back through the story and figure out w...

Tonight our guest is Greg Ware the author of the inspirational science-fiction thriller " Just Love Everybody. " Greg lives in Pasadena, CA and works as an administrator for the local school district. He is also a musician and producer with a Top-Forty hit and over 20 songs placed on television. His novel is a soliloquy of syntax soaked in science-fiction, yet seasoned with the truth. We have conducted an interview with him. How different is producing top-forty hits versus writing an epic-adventure about time travel? Believe it or not, there are several similarities in these seemingly inharmonious endeavors. As Quincy Jones once stated, "A great song isn't written, it's rewritten." The attention to detail and the willingness to take chances is a talent that deserves recognition. I see you have a music soundtrack that accompanies the novel. How do they work in tandem? Well, first let me say that this book is not about music. Yet, the music is...

We have conducted an interview with him. How does your background as a Senior IT Analyst help you in your change to be a hotelier expert? I loved working in IT and still my strongest skill is everything that is related to a computer. However in 2006 I felt the need of moving abroad after realising that my career in Italy was completely stuck. In fact the only way of getting a promotion and achieving something in the Italian market is if you are the friend of someone. Meritocracy is a word that only in the recent years has started to be really understood by the Italians. So considering my little chances of going any fur...
