Just rereading "Knot of Shadows" and had a whimsical thought. Do you think, when Foix goes for his training as a sorcerer that Penric's books will be a part of his required reading?

Not impossible. When last seen Pen had not yet gotten around to his Ibran translation, but there's plenty of time (and time for downstream translators) yet. Not to mention seminary libraries would likely have books in neighboring languages, as academic libraries tend to do.

I wonder if you have ever dreamed about any of your characters? Have they or settings/places from your books ever "showed up" in a dream, in any context? Any examples of a character from the Vorkosigan saga interacting with a character from the 5 God series? Do you recall ever having a dream that helped you figure out a plot point or given you aid in your writing? Thank you so much for considering my question.

Hello; Do authors usually get a percentage of the profit after costs for the sales of the book? If they do, how does that work with e-books? The cost is much lower to produce and no shipping costs so when that is factored out, so the profit starts coming sooner doesn't it?
