Essays on Firefly and House

BenBella is putting out two more Smart Pop books, one on Firefly/Serenity (a sequel to their Finding Serenity, edited by Jane Espenson) and one on House; I have been asked to contribute to each (I already have an essay in the Veronica Mars book due out soon). For House I will write on Hugh Laurie's career as it leads up to the character of Doctor Gregory House, and for Firefly, on the complex and interesting story structure of the episode "Out of Gas." I will keep everyone updated on these projects.

  3. Congrats on both these things, and especially landing "Out of Gas" (I'm assuming they're not going to double-up on topics), I can imagine a lot of people wanting to talk about that one. It's the episode that finally sold me on the series (I am sometimes weary of Whedon).

  6. Wow. That is wonderful news, Geoff, on all aspects. I think it is just weird that you will be managing to contribute to three of my favorite shows. Wild.
