📫✨ The Letters That Sparked a Storytelling Journey ✉️🔍 In the latest episode of Audio Signals, I sit down with Michael Pickard, an author who began his storytelling journey in the most heartwarming way—writing letters to his daughter while she was at camp. What started as a way to make her smile (and sneak in a few life lessons) evolved into a lifelong passion for writing novels, from #scifi to detective mysteries. We talk about: 💡 How #writing letters inspired his Girfnit Chronicles 🔍 The balance between creativity and logic in crafting mysteries 📚 The evolution of his writing. Michael’s stories go beyond entertainment—they make you think, connect with characters, and reflect on life’s lessons. Michael Pickard’s writing serves as the bridge between his professional work in #technology and his passion for the creative arts. Dozens of Pickard's short stories have been published, including Hardwired, which won a Ray Bradbury Creative Writing Prize in 2005. Pickard’s extensive background working with cutting edge technology has proved helpful for imagining fictive universes and societies. Strong satire keeps readers grounded, thinking and laughing. 🎥 Watch the video teaser: https://lnkd.in/giHzPURp 🎧 Listen to the full episode: https://lnkd.in/gzxvfAN7 📺 Watch the full video interview: https://lnkd.in/gTXygCjn If you love stories about #storytelling (and the #storytellers behind them), this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
