Brandon would like to welcome author Geoffrey Thorne (STAR TREK: TITAN – SWORD OF DAMOCLES) to Writing for Rookies as he discusses his upbringing, what led to his interest in the sci-fi genre, and how he managed to get one of the most sought-after contracts in the publishing business: a Star Trek novel.
Geoffrey explains in great detail how he broke into the business and the process of establishing himself as a writer. He talks about dealing with rejection, the re-writing process, the headaches of dealing with editors, and what people of color can do in the business to get people to recognize their talents.
His website is: geoffreythorne.com

This is one of the longest, and best, Writing for Rookies episodes ever!
