Hey all! Tomorrow, my blog kicks off the first day of a month of interviews with authors, artists, publishers, hitch-hikers, the occasional documentary-maker, and other people who have made it their life’s work to tell a story. We will be discussing the creative process, diversity in literature (and art) and how adversity, specifically poverty, addiction, and depression, affect creative abilities, and the repercussions of artificially inflicting adversity on one’s self for the sake of art. We will also be discussing the freedoms afforded by life lived on the fringes of society, as well as the dangers.

I hope you’ll all follow this great series, which you can follow by tracking #augustofstuff or #mikinterviewsauthors.

If you’d like your voice to be heard in this discussion, message me about scoring an interview, follow me on Twitter, submit questions you’re like authors to answer, and just generally interact with each other. :)
