When asked "what is your favorite series," I do have ones within genres, but none overall because it's apples and oranges to me. That said, "Vorkosigan Saga" is my favorite Sci-Fi series, and if pressed on a favorite author, your name is the one I give. I simply love your flavor of storytelling. Obligatory fanboying out of the way, do you have any advice on writing stories for us who are woefully inexperienced?

As always, my pointer for newbie writers is Pat Wrede's blog, and/or her ebook Wrede on Writing. Some of the most level-headed writing advice on the net, and covers, over time, a wide range of topics. (The search function is useful for netting particular interests.) https://pcwrede.com/blog/
Should keep you busy for a while.
Good luck -- L.

For people starting to follow your work in the 80s, would they have been able to read Aftermaths in the Far Frontiers publication before Shards of Honor was officially published? I'm about to dive into your work and am entertaining the idea of starting with Aftermaths, but only if the above is true.
