Audio Origin Interview!

| Random

Something Like Summer is a story of humble origins. Some guy who—quite frankly—had no idea what he was doing, scribbled the story down while blubbering his eyes out. Then he sent it around, got the cold shoulder, and turned to his husband for help. How the movie came to be isn’t so different. Something Like Summer is in essence a story about an underdog finding his place in the world, so it’s only fitting that both the book and movie have similar beginnings. That’s what I spoke about recently in an audio interview. I normally don’t do such things, preferring to hide behind a keyboard where I can look up all the fancy words I need. Jordan, the host of Your Hollywood Pro, had to chase me down and then coax me out from under the bed with some Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Only then would I agree to talk to him about the Something Like… series and why a grown man still plays with action figures. If you’d like to find out for yourself, you can listen to the interview here. And hey, if you enjoy yourself, you should check out the other shows in the series because there have been some great guests on Your Hollywood Pro, and you couldn’t ask for a better host!
