Michael S Jackson, author of the epic Ringlander fantasy series, reveals how he lets the first draft storytelling flow in order to leave himself material that he can use in edits and rewrites. He also shares details of his new Kickstarter campaign!

WE DISCUSS:
The balance between story, magic and worldbuilding
The importance of cover art and creating beautiful books
And the important of the Rubik's Cube to his state of mind...
And much more!
