I whole-heartedly agree on the needlework thing. My mom taught me to knit when I was five and I've been doing some sort of needlework or other almost continuously since then.

I'm really, really excited to read this book.

You won't be disappointed! I lost two whole days to STARCROSSED, and it was time well spent!

Lovely interview! I really liked A Curse Dark As Gold and I can't wait to dig into Starcrossed!

I can't wait to read Star Crossed. I've heard such good things about it. And I met Cheryl Klein, Elizabeth's editor. I would so love to have her as an editor.

Elizabeth, it sounds like you've put a lot of research into your book. I'm going to check out your resource page. Good luck with your books.

Cheryl does sound like an incredible resource, doesn't she??

And I had a lot of fun poking around Elizabeth's resource page. Lots of great stuff there.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Elizabeth and Robin - I just LOVED this interview. So much fun to hear Elizabeth's writing process and all the intriguing research that goes into her stories. (Plus I laughed out loud at the idea of every author needing a Cheryl Klein to keep them organized - wouldn't that be nice?!) And STARCROSSED sounds like my favorite kind of read! I'm hooked! Off to go order a copy right now!

I loved hearing about how evolving Elizabeth's process was, as mine seems to change with every book. :-)

When can the three of us all sit down in one place, with tea, and talk like this???

Re: Could I love this interview more? rllafevers October 16 2010, 17:15:53 UTC

I know! Elizabeth and I are going to HAVE to get ourselves organized and get down for the next retreat...

Re: Could I love this interview more? elizabethcbunce October 16 2010, 23:57:00 UTC

Oh! Oh! I'm totally up for that! Can we do it in Greece or Scotland?

Re: Could I love this interview more? amarisglass October 22 2010, 23:53:03 UTC

Really? Are you joking? My next big trip is to Greece (for research AND for awesome)...is this a come one, come all thing that I can invite myself to? I'm good company, I promise!

And wow, what a great interview! I want everyone to always answer such interesting questions with such thoughtful and detailed answers. Super fun to read--thanks, Robin & Elizabeth!

I think my absolute favorite part of this interview is Elizabeth makes the point that being brave and strong does not mean that one cannot enjoy traditionally feminine pursuits. I wholeheartedly agree!

This makes me even more excited to read Starcrossed and I was already pretty eager after enjoying A Curse Dark as Gold.

Thank you so much for sharing this interview with us.

rllafevers October 16 2010, 17:17:20 UTC

Yes! I agree that they are not mutually exclusive and it's nice to have that acknowledged.
