Video Interview (in France!)
Posted on December 10, 2007 Posted by John Scalzi 5 Comments
Jeff VanderMeer has a gig blogging for Amazon, and while he and I were in France for the Utopiales festival, he went ahead and interviewed me on video, primarily about The Android’s Dream. The whole write-up (in which Jeff says some kind things about me) is here, but I’ve gone ahead and put the video below. Note how my bald spot makes it look like I have a divot off the top of my head. It’s tonsure-rific!
Cool interview. Androids Dream sequel!? Being a new reader, I must have missed that.. Kickass!
But
Scruffy, Furry Scalzi > Clean Shaven Scalzi
You look so much more menacing being unshaven. Or is that because you’re in crunch time and “there simply isn’t time to shave, man!”?

Scruffy, monkish Scalzi = ROWWWRRR!
A note for future video interviews –
Light on John’s face = good.
Light shining directly on John’s bald spot = bad.
See, here’s the thing. Have you noticed that your brain will “fill in” things it needs? From a person you need 1) a face 2) a voice. Whatever you don’t have, you imagine. So all this time, I read Sr. Scalzi and I have the face and my brain filled in the voice. I must admit, it was much more Darth Vaderish in my head . . . .
