1. A good short story writer has an instinct for sketching in just enough background to ground the specific story.
2. I write sets of books, but I've also written a lot of orphans.
3. Once you've invested hundreds of hours in creating a coherent universe, your story's grown to around a half-million words and can't be written as anything less than a trilogy.
4. For me, writing a short story is much, much harder than writing a novel.
5. Ideas aren't magical; the only tricky part is holding on to one long enough to get it written down.
6. It's possible to become so comfortable with one's style and structure that one ceases to grow.
7. Ideas aren't magical; the only tricky part is holding on to one long enough to get it written down.
8. One of my great passions is the collection of historical trivia.
9. I'm always trolling for trivia.
10. Editors of open anthologies actively seek submissions from all comers, established and unknown. They are willing to read whatever the tide washes up at their feet.
11. My writing has to support more than my research habit, but I love to curl up with a book about some dusty corner of history.
12. Neophyte writers tend to believe that there is something magical about ideas and that if they can just get a hold of a good one, then their futures are ensured.
13. I'm dense when it comes to discouragement.
14. I'm one of those writers who, when writing, believes she's god-and that she hasn't bestowed free will on any of her characters. In that sense there are no surprises in any of my books.
15. It took me about 12 years to reach my million-word mark. The challenge now is to continue to challenge myself.
16. That bedrock faith that I could write was what blinded me to attempts to discourage me.
17. There is nothing that compares to an unexpected round of applause.
18. During the many centuries that magic, here on this planet, was presumed to have worked, there were at least as many theories as to how magic worked as there were cultures and religions.
19. When I'm not writing or tweaking my computer, I do embroidery. When I'm not plunging into the past, tweaking, or embroidering, I'm reading books about history, computers, or embroidery.
20. No one uses a ribbon typewriter any more, but your final draft is not the time to try to wring a few more sheets out of your inkjet cartridge.
