18. What genres might you try if you wrote outside your chosen genres?

I'm working on getting other types of story into my 'genre'. Adding romance, political intrigue, mystery, etc.

Of course, in my world 'fantasy' is just regular literature.

27. Hollywood has optioned your work for a movie. Do you disown it if they change things?

Still waiting for them to pay me for the story they lifted 40 years ago.
They pay, they can change whatever they want.

2. Do your characters play any games?

One of my MCs is an expert knife thrower. He wins money in various taverns playing a game similar to modern darts. To win, you have to score 200 exactly.

6. Would you consider an audiobook of your novel or short story?

I prefer to have itinerant bards travel from town to town reciting my stories while accompanied with string, percussion, and wind instruments.
The original audiobooks.

12. Do you prefer to write on a desktop, laptop, typewriter, pen and paper, quill and parchment, blood and stone?

Parchment (and vellum, too) are way too expensive for drafting. I try to use paper or low-end papyrus.

My favorite nibs are made from manticore quills, but they are hard to come by.

"Thank you for this wonderful gift. It will certainly come in handy on our new mission."

190. Write about something your SC frequently forgets.

Rizo tends to forget that he has the perfect solution RIGHT THERE to the problem he is currently facing.

14. Does your work feature on Good Reads? How do you feel about the platform?

I posted some reviews there when Amazon wouldn't let me post them to the book listing because they couldn't authenticate that I had actually purchased the book.
(Not a big surprise since I live in a fantasy world.)

My own works are listed, but interestingly have only been reviewed by people from my own world.

So, yay, I guess?

9. Do you invent places in your work? Are any based on real locations?

As mentioned in my message for March 3, all the places mentioned in my books are real locations in my world.
