That was the last time I posted anything: A long time ago. I’m going to try and rectify that, posting here more often about a variety of things, writing related or not. At the very least it gets me writing something everyday. I’m also going to start interviewing writers again with my 50 Word Story [...]

To start, I’ll say that Ben Tanzer is a friend of mine. We’ve known each other for almost two years now, give or take.
