AOTW: Besides the obvious element of technological/scientific content, what else do you think separates the fantasy genre from science fiction? Meredith Ann Pierce: Tamora Pierce: A lot of science fiction seems written to instruct readers on the science and mechanics involved in the book as much as it tries to tell the story (this is not a problem with my favorite science fiction writers, by the way) - too often the writer seems to attend to the science so much that s/he forgets the fiction aspect. In part this is because a lot of fantasy is historical, based on ground many readers have already encountered, so there's less need to explain common elements like armor, castles, kings, wizards, and so on. Many fantasy novels tend to avoid the perils of periodic infodumps, though you will find them from time to time. That's about all I can think of, and it's not because of that Arthur Clarke technology-indistinguishable-from-magic thing, but because fantasy and science fiction both revolve around not just plain survival, but triumph, even if only for a very few at the end, and because both stretch the imagination in directions most imaginations otherwise won't get stretched. Both start from the basic 'what if' premise: it's just how we symbolize our possibilities that we differ. Mark L. Williams:

Grilled salmon and wasabi dumplings (Japanese style) and chocolate mud cake and onion bahjias and heaps of others. Do you have a nickname and if so what is it? I used to have lots of nicknames - especially at school because I have such an unusual name but thankfully I don't have any anymore. Well not that I know of... What was your most embarrassing moment? Having a bottle of very smelly deodorant explode all over me in an airline toilet halfway to Bangkok. The cabin crew had to find me a change of clothes and it made the whole cabin stink. How do you relax? I watch Formula One motor racing and rugby league on TV, embroider, garden, eat out and go kayaking on Wellington Harbour. Who inspired you when you were little?
