Robert Williscroft is a fantastic science fiction author, speaker, and professional whose latest novel, Slingshot is now available on Amazon for pre-order (http://amzn.com/B0124T4OXS). Robert is full of great information and inspiration for authors, so I am excited to have him on Writer Groupie Podcast.

In this episode, we discuss his journey from idea to story, and upcoming events.
