In this episode, Eric is joined by T. Perran Mitchell, the crafter of stories and maker of things! Comics are his favorite medium and have been for as long as he can remember. Growing up with ADHD, dyslexia, and anxiety, comics not only fostered a love of reading, they were the key to learning to read. He has also been with the same company for nearly 20 years running their quality control department. T took a circuitous path to writing comics by first graduating from Drexel University with a degree in Information Science and Technology. Every term, he took at least one class for himself that had nothing to do with his major, which led him to accidentally minoring in Philosophy and nearly attaining a minor in literature. He uses these various interests to inform his writing. Find out more about T. Perran Mitchell on his website at TPerranMitchell.com! You can also find T.
