Show notes - (show length 18:34) Elspeth Bloodgood interviews author Richard Cox.

Author of techno thrillers Rift and The God Particle

He talks about Rift, how he wrote it in first person and present tense, and how it took a while to sell it.

Richard tells how he got hooked up with an agent through playing fantasy football online.

Elspeth asks him to tell about his second novel, The God Particle which is inspired by the Higg’s Boson.

He has written a third novel that is currently looking for a home. Not a techno story but does have some elements.

Richard is an avid golfer and filmed his buddy who has the world’s worst golf swing. He submitted the video and his friend won the contest and was even shown on the Golf Channel.
