Ben Mezrich:
Hi Ben, by pure coincidence I've recently read your xfiles book, Skin. I've always wondered, how do authors get those gigs? Did you have an idea for an xfiles story first, write and submit? Or were you headhunted? Also, did you enjoy the experience and would you ever do it again?

Actually the x-files people came to me and tried to hire me to write for the show. I didn't want to move to la or Vancouver, so I offered to write a stand alone novel, as part of their book series. Was a very fun project to do!
