FEATURES: Snatched Moments #1

In each issue of Matrix, we will attempt to bring you an ‘in brief’ interview with someone of interest to the SF community.

The subject of this debut ‘Snatched Moments’ column is Tony C Smith, Captain of the StarshipSofa.

Interviewed for Matrix by Ian Whates

Starshipsofa PodcastQ1: How did StarShipSofa come about?

Tony: How it started… well… If you'll allow me, I'm going to call myself a few things here. Most people do, so why not join in? I'm going to class myself as part of ‘the iPod generation’, even though I'm now forty-one. I'm also a teeny-weeny bit of a gadget freak and, it goes without saying, an SF nerd. You mix all those together (oh… and I forgot – also a failed writer) and there is only one thing left to do... Podcast!
