I'm thinking that was a video moment if ever there was one. Now I can put a face with the Cherry Adair books. Thanks Paul.

One comment, when you post could you state where the interview took place? The location here looks as interesting as the interview. I see you like ice water Paul, That is water is it not? Don't you just love cats?

Re: Cherry Adair's Rat Story

Paul Gude ·
Hi, James. Normally we name the location. Since this was conceived as a companion piece to the White Heat interview , I left it out. The location is the same for both interviews. Cherry Adair's awesome house.

What a great test of composure. My sister had a cat named TC, but I can't remember what it stood for....

That's a great story - aren't cats wonderful? they think we should be so grateful . . . My TC was whatever seemed appropriate at the time - he started out as "Tough Cat" (from the way he behaved when he was small enough to fit into my hand, but still managed to hiss at and threaten the two great big dogs, who thought I had brought them a snack!) - then he turned into "Talkative Cat" (the noisiest cat I have ever known, bar none), or "Terrible Cat" (when we were REALLY sick of the talking . .

Well, I love Neil Gaiman, so if HE likes them, they are worth checking out.

How refreshing to hear an author promoting using the library. Good interview and filiming guys. Keep 'em coming. Now, how bout a little more about the actual book? Have you read them?
Comment

Re: An Interview with Emma Bull and Will Shetterly

Paul Gude ·
Yes, I enjoyed both books! "Territory" is what Emma likes to call a "Secret History" book. The events *could* have happened the way they're described, and history wouldn't reflect it. It's a nice mix of old-west and fantasy. "The Gospel of the Knife" explores a very interesting idea regarding religious traditions, set in what is an interesting modern fantasy landscape. You can actually check out "The Gospel of the Knife" online, here: http://qwertyranch.blogspot.co...gospel-of-knife.html...

Isn't Cherry great. I believe she used to be an interior designer. Her whole house is awsome and each room has a theme. Her dogs have interesting personallities as well. The last time I was there, the dogs kept coming to the sliding glass door and staring at us. And, if the front door wasn't locked, the dogs would open it and come and say hi. Well, they wanted the treats that were in the cookie jar too. Very smart and very friendly.

Re: Matt Ruff on Bad Monkeys

I'm intrigued.. The story sounds much more interesting than I would have thought. Looks like I will have to learn to read again! I have gone through the house and removed all pictures with eyes on. Problem, if the book has eyes on it, should I buy it? I will keep my eyes open (not a pun) for any monkeys on the wall stuff, and you can be sure that I will take a picture if I find anything, but I'm a long way from London. If they make a movie I think it would be a bit like Gattaca but more ...

Re: Mark Ferrari Interview

I love the artwork. I may have missed this....but did he illustrate his book, as well?

Re: Mark Ferrari Interview

Very well done! I'll have to check this one out. Loved the Chronicles of Narnia. Ferrari expressed himself in such a way as to inspire while showing what inspired him. I like his three lessons learned! Reality check!

Re: Mark Ferrari Interview

St. Joby ·
Hi Lori. Mark Ferrari here. (Author of The Book of Joby) In regard to your question about whether I illustrated my own book, the answer is, not really. There's a little dragon on the cover breething fire on an 'O' in the title, which was clipped out of a larger piece of my art - (in fact, the piece of art shown in Paul's video interview with me). But the larger piece of my art once slated to decorate the cover was vetoed at the last minute when buyers for the big book chains told Tor, (the...

Re: Mark Ferrari Interview

St. Joby ·
Hi SuBe. Glad you liked the three lessons. They really are invaluable. I wear a helmet almost everywhere now: to bed, in the shower ... ;-) But seriously, I had a blast doing this interview with Paul, and am glad you found some inspiration there. If you do check out the book, I hope you'll tell us what you thought - good or bad. All reconnaisance is good reconnaisance. ... (did I spell that wright?) :-)

Very nice. Some people never learn the lessons of life, let alone be able to define them. Keep up the good work.

Although we didn't get to it in the interview, Mark's got another novel in the works. We'll have more on it in the future!

Re: Mark Ferrari Interview

SuBe ·
We went to Barnes and Nobel and purchased your first book...at first we could not find it so we asked for assistance...you'll be happy to hear the lady who helped us said "oh that one, I remember it clearly, it stands out because of the unusual cover" and indeed she found it for us! St. Joby, just out of curiosity, have you read The Stand by Stephen King? It is about the fight between good and evil too...nightmare material.
Comment

Re: Mark Ferrari Interview

St. Joby ·
Hey SuBe, thanks for giving my little tale a try! Hope you enjoy the read. I have not, in fact, ever read The Stand. Joby's quest does get a little grim at times, ... well, pretty DARN grim at times, but there's humor and wonder in there too. I have never liked books that just drag you through the mud for 90 miles only to leave you in the middle of a bog at the end ''cause that's the human condition,' and I hope not to have written one. I think the end of a tale should leave you with...

Re: Jay Lake

Paul Gude ·
One thing that was cut from the interview is the fact that the sequel to Mainspring, Escapement, has some awesome cover art as well. Jay gave me a link to the image, and it was too good not to show. I hope to follow up with Jay when Escapement is released!

Great interview! I have read all of Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child's books (whether written together or individually) and am a huge fan of the Pendergast series (although I'm a bit tired of his evil brother). Looking forward to seeing Constance Greene have a greater role in this book.
