So now let's get to our show.

Thank you. Hi, I'm David Barr-Curtley, author of the book Save Me Please and other stories.

And welcome to episode 595 of Geeks Guide to the Galaxy.

Today on the show, we'll be discussing the book, The Business of Science Fiction,

which collects 26 articles written by Mike Resnick and Barry Molesberg between 1999 and 2010.

And I'm joined today by my good friend Tom Gorenzer, making his 35th appearance on the show.

He's the author of the business book Think Like Google.

The short story collection intergalactic refrigerator repairmen seldom carry cash and the popular science book How It's Made, which he wrote for the Discovery Channel.

His middle grade novel, The Magic Ski Mountain, is out now. So, Tom, welcome to the show. Thank you, Dave. It's always great to

talk to you about this stuff. Okay, so I'm just, first of all, just wondering, had you ever

heard of this book before I suggested that we read it? Yes, I had. Yes, I had. I read several of these articles in the

SIFO bulletin, and Mike had talked to me about it, and I had seen it, and I'd seen it,

I'd gone and checked it out on Amazon, and yeah, I knew about it for sure. Okay, cool, yeah,

so we'll mention that we both knew Mike Resnick.

He was one of our instructors at the Clarion Writers Workshop in 1999.
