Away With Words
Kristofer Velasquez is a writer, director, producer, teacher, and father who has chosen this podcast as a verbal quest for immortality through a collection of musings. Sometimes creatively written, other times just curiously spoken - he hopes that his words might reach his children after he’s gone. From published and unpublished fiction to commentary on everything from horror and science fiction, to writing and creativity, to technology and philosophy.
