Hey hey everyone,

Today we have a great interview for you: John Bierce, Author of Mage Errant! We also have cats, so this is no doubt going to be the biggest podcast episode ever. 😄

In this episode, we discuss a number of things, from Geology puns to embracing rejection to why Magic: the Gathering is a highly addictive drug 😉 We also discuss John's writing process, how Mage Errant came to be, and why fire-based liches would be a bad idea.

Next week we're going to discuss BuyMort... 😄
