Interview With Ian Liston

Posted By Mike on May 20, 2008

Our friend Kuba, the webmaster of Polish fan site Starwarsy.pl, has just posted an interview with Wes Janson himself, Ian Liston. (in English) Click here for the full interview and see below for an excerpt:

"Did you happen to read any book set in the "Star Wars" world?

Absolutely! I think some of the books are terrific! I've read most of them in the X-Wing series. The Starfighters of Adumar is a favourite as well as Wraith Squadron and Iron Fist. All by Aaron Alston who I have met several times and is always a great chap to have a chat with.

When did you realize that Star Wars is not just any film, but a timeless phenomenon which - not the most ambitious undertaking you took part in, though - would bring you popularity all around the world?

About 10 years ago when I started to get invitations to conventions and signings. .. and I've enjoyed every moment of it. I've traveled all over the world and had chances to go to places that I would probably never otherwise have visited. Japan was a fabulous trip. I was looked after very well by my host Abbe and saw so many sights and events that will forever stay in my memory.

How did your adventure with fandom start?

I was first invited to a convention on the Isle of White by Michael Sheard in about 1997. - Michael lived on the island. He became a good friend and he is sadly missed since he passed away. Other conventions seemed to flow from that."



Thanks to Kuba for sharing his interview with us!
