John Mierau is a wordsmith, a story teller, a scifi and fantasy hack not to mention, first and foremost, a family man. He is also a fellow Canadian podcaster and, as far as the Parsec awards are concerned, one of my main competitors. He is also a great person to talk to and I am honoured to have him on my show. I also talk about doing guest posts and the value of it to both the post writer and the site owner. I hope you enjoy the show.
