Aspiring Advice: First. Interview. Ever!



Greetings, old friends and new! There's a few personal things I have to take care of, which means I'm pressed for time to post my advice column today. At least here.

Reece Hanzon just did something awesome! He posted his first author interview ever. And guess what? I'm the lucky bloke he got to pick the brains out of! That makes this my first interview, too (exciting!). It's brimming with advice, a few of my secret writing techniques, and other juicy details that you won't find anywhere else.

"So make like a tree, and check out his blog!"

Umm...thanks, Biff...

I'm David, and, hey! All the orange juice is gone!
