  49. Today on our podcast Re-Creative Mark and I are joined by the super successful and super-fun science fiction writer, John Scalzi.

    It's an entertaining conversation about science fiction, the egotistical nature of writing, and John's hobby, which is music.

    But the conversation doesn't end there, as we examine the value of creating art, just for the joy of it.
