Q1. "Imposter syndrome" is described as a feeling that you are a fraud, or that you aren't as competent as others. Do you feel that you have or have had imposter syndrome relating to your writing? How do you cope with it? #WriteAndWine @AlleyArticle

A-5: Move over, Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon - these ladies are here to save the galaxy. Eight of the greatest women to soar through space gathered together in one place to fight for justice, defeat evil, and maybe make a profit . . . hey, rocket fuel isn't cheap. #WriteAndWine

A-4.2: Unfortunately, there just weren't that many female pirates who appeared in comics for that era, so I'll be bringing in some male pirates who're in the PD for that book. But, you work with what you've got. Obviously an under-served demographic. *grin* #WriteAndWine

#WriteAndWine A4: For some reason it just won't let me go. The first iteration was written one November years ago and Rodney Bilsen was just a secondary character. Things have changed.
