A few weeks ago I published a Q&A with Jane Friedman, long-time publisher of Writer’s Digest. Today she returns the favor, posting an interview with me on her Writer’s Digest blog. The topic is Building and Enthusiastic Fan Base as a Self-Publishing Author.

I grew up hacking in the early 1990s, we broke into systems to understand how they worked, went through Telco trash to find secret knowledge. A pursuit of knowledge, not financial gain. You couldn't buy books, bug bounty or enter CTF's, it was underground and yes more fun for it.
I was a mediocre baseball player; my career ended when I was 15 and I ran into my first sliders. Hopeless. But I did have 1 inning as catcher when I made all 3 outs: tagging a guy at plate, catching a pop-up, and throwing out a runner at second. My whole life downhill since then.
So this is how the Red Sox - Rays game ended. what a throw by Vazquez
That's true. But I have many of their stock certificates!
