Q+A
Is science or art more essential to humanity?
I appreciate art as much as the next guy, but are we going to act like something is pitting these two things against each other? Sounds like some nerd trying to make a point.
Which language would you like to speak fluently?
There are so many languages on both planets that are all worth learning that I don't think I could dedicate myself to learning a specific one.
Is justice or forgiveness more important?
I do believe in forgiveness if the wrongdoer does have remorse, but my work should speak for itself on how important I feel justice is.
What's your favorite dessert?
I like a good cheesecake. Just something completely indulgent.
If you could be brilliant in one subject, which would you choose?
I only got so much space in my brain to keep all my stories and if the awards I won speak for themselves, I already am a pretty brilliant writer.
What's the most beautiful place you've ever seen?
When I was in the service, I got to visit some of the big cities in Moonbeacon and I still am amazed at how technologically advanced the cities were while still looking timeless. 200-year-old cities that still look like the day they were built with modern comforts that even rival The Steinwald.
What's your favorite fast food meal?
Honestly, any meal with french fries. You can tell the quality of a place by how good their french fries are.
What do you dream your life will be like in 10 years?
Well I dream that someone hasn't tried to off me at some point. I live day by day so that far in the future is impossible for me to think about.
Which of your personality traits would you like to change?
I'll admit I can be a bit of a bastard sometimes but I wouldn't be here where I am today if it weren't for all parts of me, even the bastards ones.
What's your dream job?
What part of my background makes you think I believe in the concept of a dream job?
