Edited to add: It sure helps if I include a
link to the interview, doesn't it?
This one is totally worth reading for sheer entertainment value alone. I always worry I am going to bore my interviewees with stupid questions, but they keep bringing kickass answers to the table. Rock on.
A sample:
“Well, okay, look. I understood why Marghe in Ammonite had sex with a girl-it was a women-only planet, she didn’t have a choice, poor thing-but why does Lore have to have a girlfriend?”
“Because she’s a dyke, Fran.” And I fired her.
Also, if you are near Olympia, Washington, you should go see Nicola Griffith and Kelley Eskridge at
SciFiFest next Saturday. I would if I weren't on the wrong end of the country.
