John Scalzi is your dad's favorite living science fiction author. He wrote Old Man's War and Redshirts and Starter Villain and lots of other books. He's won some Hugos and other nerdy awards. His blog, Whatever, has been around longer than lots of actual adults have been alive. If you have Netflix, you've probably seen some episodes he's written of Love Death + Robots. On board the JoCo Cruise, he's famous for Crocs and "burritos" and being an occasional DJ. He also thinks you're great. Yes! You!
