Ep. 8: The SFF We Read as Kids

Join host Adrian M. Gibson and FanFiAddict’s Tori Gross, Tom Harnett and Eleni Argyró for another FanFiAddict family panel. This time, we take a trip down nostalgia lane and explore the science fiction, fantasy and horror that we read as kids. During the panel, we discuss early SFF origins and exposure, how SFF helped us personally growing up, potential stigma or shame surrounding reading and nerd culture, looking back on childhood favorites as adults and much more. ABOUT THE PANELISTS: Tori Gross is an author, poet, and reviewer. She predominantly reads YA SFF, but is more than willing to peruse all genres if they pique her interest.
