The Chaser’s first hot-on for Mario was in 1998, when he appeared on a cable tv show about California cops on bikes.

Return to AVATAR’s Pandora, and The Absent Black Experience in Science Fiction Cinema

Now I don’t have a problem looking at writing samples, because there are a lot of good writers out there. A lot of them got fired from newspapers and magazines…
