A doubly exciting author interview this week since we've not only writer and producer of shows such as Buffy and Gilmore Girls, Jane Espenson (right) answering questions, the questions were set by one of our favourite authors, Shanna Swendson (left).
Jane recently edited the essay collection, Serenity Found - about Joss Whedon's TV series Firefly - so some of Shanna's questions relate to the show, but even if, like me, you've never seen the show, there's plenty here to enjoy.

Exclusive excerpt: 'Serenity Found'
I just posted an interview with Jane Espenson. Now here's one essay from her book, Serenity Found: More Unauthorized Essays on Joss Whedon's Firefly Universe. It's written by none other than the star of the film and short-lived TV series:
"I, Malcolm"
By Nathan Fillion
Sometimes it's hard to separate an actor from the character he plays, if for no other reason than the fact that they have a tendency to look so much alike. Sometimes actors come to (...) - News / Book 2007-10-01 : "Serenity Found : Unauthorized Essays on Whedon's Firefly Universe"

Breaking In: True Tales from Women on the Rim with Jane Espenson
We're taking a break from our regularly scheduled programming for an interview with TV writer Jane Espenson. Check back next week for the third chapter of my Hollywood journey.

Jane Espenson is a multi-talented woman of distinction. A writer and linquist responsible for some of the best SF programming to have ever hit the air waves.
Jane grew up in Ames, Iowa where she was often accused of watching far too much television. At age 13 she attempted to write an episode of “M*A*S*H.” That didn't quite work out so she eventually attended college at UC Berkeley, studying linguistics as an undergrad and graduate student. While in grad school she (...) - Interviews / Book 2007-10-01 : "Serenity Found : Unauthorized Essays on Whedon's Firefly Universe"

With a second book of essays about our favorite ‘verse, I think Jane Espenson has started a trend. I'll expect another one of these every year or so. (And somewhere she's laughing at me…)

10/17/2007: The Importance of Self-Promotion
Did you know that authors rarely do book tours anymore? It's true. Unless you're a huge draw as a freestanding celebrity, those tours just don't sell enough books to pay for the travel costs. So now there are internet tours, where you promote your book by "appearing on" various websites. Of course, this is all a way to announce my up-coming internet book tour to promote Serenity Found, the newest book edited by me, about Joss Whedon's (...) - News / Book 2007-10-01 : "Serenity Found : Unauthorized Essays on Whedon's Firefly Universe"
