For any of you who are not yet tired of hearing me talk, there’s a new interview up on a blog called Feather Factor:

I gather it’s a fashion blog. I’m sure a fashionable guy, donchaknow.

Bernard Cornwell has a new book coming out, which is great news if you’re one of his fans, as I am. Or if you love great historical fiction. Or kickass stories, period. (And if you’re a fantasy fan who has never read historical fiction… well, you need to broaden your horizons, and Cornwell is a terrific place to start. Especially if you like action. There’s no one who writes better action scenes, in any genre).
In honor of the occasion, our British publisher (HarperCollins) and Amazon arranged an email conversation/ interview between the two of us. Turns out Bernard has read my books as well, which pleased me no end).
A short excerpt from our talk can be found on Amazon at:

Amazon only had room for a few questions, however. Actually, our talk went on considerably longer. The full interview will be going up soon on the HarperCollins website. I will be posting it on my own website as well. Will post a link here as soon as it’s up.

OKAY! The complete conversation with Bernard Cornwell can now be found on my website, on the News page. Enjoy.

As long as I’m posting videos, here are some interviews with cast members from A GAME OF THRONES.
These were recorded at recent UK and Irish conventions.

I’ve done a lot of interviews this past year, but this was the only one that touched on the profound (and hitherto unexplored) influence that Wonder Man and the Avengers have had on my work:

It was great fun being interviewed by John Hodgman (he’s a PC). Even if he does think my Not A Blog is medieval. I also got to talk with him a little more at HBO’s big post Emmy bash.
((And yes, I am looking forward next year’s AVENGERS movie. Even though I think it’s an outrage that they left out Ant-Man and the Wasp).

Tom Akel and his crew from MTV were at Bubonicon this year, interviewing me and a whole bunch of the other writers at the con.
The videos have been posted in a series of little mini-interviews here:

Check ’em out!
(And yes, I’m home again in Santa Fe, back at the computer).

The Google campus was pretty amazing. Must be a fun place to work. I especially liked the slide who those who want to get to the ground floor quickly…
