Less than a fortnight ago, John Goodwin interviewed me for his Writers of the Future podcast. That hour-long interview is now live at this link: https://soundcloud.com/writersofthefuture/297-ian-randal-strock-the-importance-of-short-fiction?si=8200bff4a422459ab8fc6c6c9d08524f&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing&fbclid=IwY2xjawFuhFtleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHSB2IR4NX79JtYEK9Vb_IlQ1woNklLXy3cOMT_Ynz42mtDJiLn0M_eBX7g_aem_4LRGlWsM0VNcypTPo68mzQ
