My first Twitter chat/interview on #sffwrtcht
This evening I participated in my first twitter chat. It makes for an interesting interview format because it was a conversation but in 140 character bursts. Byran Thomas Schmidt is the charming host and he opened the evening with this simple mission statement: “Our goal is to talk with writers, editors, and others about the …
Listen to me on KBOO’s Between the Covers
Yesterday I went down to KBOO to talk to Marianne Barisonek her show “Between the Covers.” Marianne was a delightful host and had clearly done her reading before I came in. I have a soft spot for KBOO because Willamette Radio Workshop has performed some audio theater there. It’s a great place to scream. Not …

Writing Excuses Episode 5:23 — Life Day!
I participated in yet another Writing Excuses episode while I was in Utah. Why? Because they are fun. This talks about using holidays in fantasy and science fiction, which led to Howard suggesting that a good holiday would be “Bone Puppet Day.” This was not my fault. Dave Wolverton/David Farland was on hand to talk about …
Interview on “If You’re Just Joining Us” with Jon Armstrong
Jon Armstrong and I got to know each other when he interviewed his fellow Campbell nominees for his podcast, If You’re Just Joining Us. We hit it off and became friends so when he asked if I’d be on his podcast again, I jumped at the chance. It’s a fun conversation. But… But. Jon knows …

Omnivoracious: Quick Three Interview: Mary Robinette Kowal on Shades of Milk and Honey
Jeff Vandermeer interviewed me for Amazon.com’s Omnivoracious blog. He asked only three questions about Shades of Milk and Honey and I can guarantee that you haven’t heard me answer them before. The questions? If your novel were a meal, what would it be? If your novel were a piece of music, who would have composed …

There’s an audio interview with me at The Bat Segundo Show
While I was in New York, I sat down with Edward Champion for an interview for The Bat Segundo Show. I will tell you this right now: This is the hardest interview I have ever done. He had read the book more thoroughly than anyone I’ve met and asked me questions about things I had …

I was interviewed by Mur Lafferty of I Should Be Writing
While at NasFic, Mur Lafferty interviewed me for her podcast, I Should Be Writing. Mur makes the whole thing feel like a casual conversation between friends which reduces the level of stress induced by trying to sound reasonably intelligent. (Note to debut authors: when your book launches your brain is liable to have a repeating …

Science Fiction and Other ODDysseys interviews me
Ann Wilkes interviewed me for Science Fiction and Other ODDysseys. We did the interview via IM which was fun and allowed for a more fluid give and take than an email interview but with the chance to actually think about what I was going to say, unlike radio interviews. It’s like the best of both …

Odd historical things I learned while writing Shades of Milk and Honey at Tor/Forge’s Blog
I’m subscribed to the Tor/Forge newsletter because there have been some nifty giveaways and interviews in there. The funny thing here is that I forgot that I gave them an article for the newsletter and so was surprised to see my name today even though I knew darn well to expect it because my novel …

In the air and on the air
I’m sitting at JFK and there is some question about if I will be flying out tonight. The flight is oversold and late. They are offering me a voucher and to fly me straight to Seattle tomorrow, in time to arrive for the Locus awards. We’ll see what happens with that. Before I left I …
