Shelly is joined by her remote 'quaranteam' Kris(in Boulder)and Lauren(in Indiana) to talk with the Wilde Award winning author(Clutter-Best New Script 2017) Brian Cox!(right down the street from me) about his short story The Surrogate Initiative. This story about an AI psychologist and the first court case using AI jury selection was selected for Best American Mysteries of 2020! First of all, we loved it! Our discussion covered everything from how those awards don't REALLY matter to The Outrageous Okona Star Trek Episode(S2/E4)(the one where Data tries stand up comedy)to the Sisyphean task of cleaning the streets of Ypsilanti. We talk about the writer we are versus the writer we want to be. We form a writing club with a spreadsheet and everything because Brian is helpful and Lauren is a boss. I am so grateful for this right now, even though Zoom sound quality can bite me. Sorry Zoom, I love you. Don't leave me.
