Worldcon Cometh: Interviews Anyone?

Almost all of the Skiffy and Fanty crew will be at Worldcon this year, and we’ll have magic recording devices with which we will steal your voices to use against vampires in Canada… Or not. Anywho.  Since we’re going to be in attendance as a podcasting crew of doom, we’d like to set up some interviews and discussions with authors, critics, and related parties!  If you’re one of those folks and would like to be on the show, get in touch with us and we’ll make it happen!  You can leave a comment below or send an email to skiffyandfanty@gmail.com 🙂 So who wants to have a microphone shoved in their face? P.S.:  Yes, you can totally hock your book or soul-destroying robot to our audience.  🙂
