I’ve been interviewed for Sci Fi November by the Two Dudes in an Attic speculative fiction blog, following their earlier review of Gemsigns. The questions were interesting and thought-provoking; in fact they provoked so many thoughts that the interview was split in two! Both sections are now up (and they’re not that long, promise). I like it when the questions I’m asked let me talk about things that I think are important, and these did. Here’s part 1, and here’s part 2.
Many thanks to Andrea Johnson for inviting me to participate, and introducing me to the Two Dudes.

/ November 16, 2014Thank you Stephanie! I enjoyed our conversation very much, and your answers gave me plenty to think over. I especially enjoyed your descriptions of the European side of things, since that’s not a perspective I’m going to see much here. Looking forward to Binary coming out over here.

/ November 16, 2014I especially enjoyed reading this interview (both parts). It was revealing how the issues & symbols in the book were viewed differently depending on the readers ethno/geographic background. I admit to falling into the “white person’s view” of the glowing hair, and was glad to know that there are more profound ways of interpreting that as a symbol. Two Dudes’ mention of gamergate prompted me to read about that, which led to the viewing of the “Tropes versus Women in Video Games” series. While this isn’t exactly the discrimination that Stephanie is addressing in her books, I applaud her for taking on the topic intelligently both in her literature and her public voice.
