Anne
Anne asked N.K. Jemisin:

Do you think of yourself as an anti-colonial writer, or does it just happen?

N.K. Jemisin It probably just happens because I have Thoughts about colonialism. :D

David Edmonds
David Edmonds asked N.K. Jemisin:

Will I need to brush up on my plate tectonics to read this one?! Seriously, your first trilogy was heavily scientific sci/fi. I loved it, but getting into the wholly new world was hard, especially as I let too much time lag between the books. Does this new series demand as much from the reader, and is this a concern to you as the author?

Rai FG
Rai FG asked N.K. Jemisin:

How do you formulate and decide on the language/words that are unique to the world/s you're building? (e.g. some of the epithets from Broken Earth)

Nick King
Nick King asked N.K. Jemisin:

If you could get the Broken Earth series produced and streamed, who would you choose to play the main characters?
