Science fiction short story writer and neuroscientist, Benjamin C. Kinney, joins me on the podcast. We kick off the conversation by discussing  Ben's many tabletop role-playing game adventures, from Dungeons and Dragons to Shadowrun. Then we move into writing science fiction. We touch on how his work as a neuroscientist informs his writing. Monkeys with microchips in their brains enter the conversation at one point. Plus, we learn how he took a Shadowrun character backstory and turned it into a science fiction short story.
