Grossman interview on SCI FI Wire

Wordcandy writer Austin Grossman, author of Soon I Will Be Invincible, was recently interviewed on SCI FI Wire. Despite the fact that he says things like "The tropes of superhero life were developed for a graphical format... describing a satisfying superhero fight was harder than I'd thought—evoking that complicated and viscerally kinetic action in prose took a lot of care", Mr. Grossman manages to come across as a pretty fun guy. (He claims to have had a friend punch him in the face a few times so he could write his fight scenes with the voice of experience.)
