Interview: Learn a bit about PKD Media on the Teenage Wasteland podcast!

Thursday, August 6th, 2009

A few weeks ago, comics podcaster Alec Berry of the Teenage Wasteland podcast extended out his multimedia reach to me and asked if I wanted to be on his show to answer some questions as to what PKD Media is really all about.

The result is an in-depth, behind the scenes look at the creation of PKD comics from a creators side. It was a great time, and Alec is quite the consummate professional; he was on his P’s & Q’s when it came to his questions. Alec knows his stuff about comics.

It’s a good listen. Check it out:
