Author & Producer Melinda M Snodgrass Wants You to Take the Risk!

On this week's episode of Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity, host & producer George Sirois sits down with the guest of honor for this weekend's Archon 48 Convention in Collinsville, Illinois, acclaimed author & producer Melinda M Snodgrass. After several years working in law, Melinda took a chance on herself and started writing. This resulted in the Star Trek novel "The Tears of the Singers," and in the next several years, Melinda would work with her friend / fellow author George R.R. Martin and their anthology series "Wild Cards," and write a spec script for Star Trek: The Next Generation that would not only become the widely acclaimed episode "The Measure of a Man," but would also bring her into the writers' room as a Story Editor for nearly two seasons. This would only be the beginning of Melinda's vast creative journey, which would take her to other television series, more books, and the silver screen. Check out all of Melinda's works on her website - including "The High Ground" and "Lucifer's War," the first installments of the Imperials series and the Carolingian series - by clicking HERE.Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity exists primarily as a platform for creatives of all kinds (authors, filmmakers, stand-up comics, musicians, voice artists, painters, podcasters, etc) to share their journeys to personal success. It is very important to celebrate those voices as much as possible to not only provide encouragement to up-and-coming talent, but to say thank you to the established men & women for inspiring the current generation of artists.If you agree that the Excelsior Journeys podcast serves a positive purpose and would like to show your appreciation, you can give back to the show by clicking HERE.Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity is now a proud member of the Podmatch Podcast Network, and you can access all shows in the network by clicking HERE.
