In episode 11 of BookBanter, listeners get to hear from the far north, as I interview multi-award-winning and bestselling Canadian author, Robert J. Sawyer.  Sawyer is the author of many books, including the trilogy Hominids,  Humans, and Hybrids, as well as Flashforward (which is currently being made into a TV series), and the first book in his new trilogy, Wake.  I got a chance to talk with Robert J. Sawyer about how he first became a writer, what his writing process is like, where he got the idea and how he researched Wake, as well as the scoop on Flashforward being made into a TV series which will be airing in the fall.
