Description

Your Hosts: Brandon, Dan, Mary Robinette, and Howard

This Q&A session was recorded before a live audience aboard ship at WXR 2022,

Here are some paraphrasings of the questions our attendees asked:

How do you make your world feel big without infodumping?
How do you balance a sense of progress with an unreliable narrator?
How can I make two magic systems work in the same setting when one is underpowered, and the protagonist uses the weaker one?
Have you ever based characters on yourself, or on people you know?
What does the process of book adaptation look like
Do you have any good convention recommendations?
What are some methods for determining how much scientific detail you go into?
How do you interact with an audience in order to grow it?
