So excited for this panel—such a great group of authors. Fans of sci-fi will love this conversation. And writers should keep their notepad handy—these authors drop knowledge bombs left and right about themes, world-building, and why this genre matters so much!

Adron, I'm glad to see you can continue working on these panels even with the current pandemic turning our world into a real-life sci-fi novel!

I didn't know Christopher Paolini was doing some sci-fi writing now??? But, like, also... Tentacles... Adron, I think your brain and mine both went to the, ah, hentai place...

Question ... why do the words Science Fiction, sound so well together, fit together?
