Episode 35: Kelli Fitzpatrick

We are very pleased this week to chat with Kelli Fitzpatrick, author and editor with Modiphius Entertainment, who joins us to talk about Star Trek and so much more. Now studying toward her MFA, Kelli shares with us what it's like to serve as one of the lead writers on the Shackleton Expanse Campaign Guide, her early success as a writer, and what it means to be creative within one's writing.  It was a true pleasure chatting with such a lovely person and we hope you will enjoy listening to the interview as much as we had recording it.

Please purchase Kelli's writing.  You will NOT be disappointed:
