Jim Hines & Bookstore Interviews & questions

[msagara]

jimhines has the second in his bookseller interviews up here. The bookseller he interviewed this time is me :D.

I am happy -- honestly happy -- to expand on anything, or even to, you know, get it right the second time if I wasn't clear the first time.

But I am pinch-hitting at the store at the moment, so the actual answers will happen when after I leave it :).

ETA: In the interview I say "write one book a year, or less," and what I meant to say was: Write a minimum of one book a year, or more than one book a year, when you are first establishing yourself, because, etc.

- More crazy stories, please!

- Tell us about stripping, if you would? (hee hee!)

- Was curious: did you like Morgan's BLACK MAN more than his other books? If so, why?

Are you trying to get me in trouble?

This is actually the first Morgan I've read, so I have nothing to compare it to, and for some reason, since this one came out, we can't keep the other books in stock, so while I intend to read at least ALTERED CARBON, I frequently can't because I don't want to take it off our shelves.

But in and of itself, I adored this book. It has everything that I in theory don't love in a book, but Morgan understands people, which is probably the biggest thing that I do love in a book. And it was published as TH1RTEEN in the US, by Del Rey. I think it's Del Rey. This is the sound of me not going to amazon to check.

So much the ick. Oh, well. Because I'm me I have the Gollancz hc, the Del Rey hc, and the Orion pb.

Morgan's next book is a fantasy. I'm worried.
