Is there any chance of getting more prequel novels in the Vorkosigan Saga? I have read all of the books, and one of my coworkers (who turned me on to them the books about 4 years ago) both would love to see a book detailing the Komarr revolt, or the Cetagandan occupation with focus on Aral and Piotr respectively.

No such plans at this time.
My current interests run more to comedy than to drama, I confess. I think I'm also overdue for something completely different, without a giant series backstory to wrestle. Making the same text serve, simultaneously, trufans who remember it all, occasional fans who have read only some stories and remember it only dimly, and brand-new readers who know nothing except what is on the page in front of them right now, is... a tricky balancing act. And yet late-series books can also present other artistic opportunities that single novels can't, so, go figure.

I'm a survivor of an abusive marriage. Reading about Ekaterin has really helped me. I like how Miles grew when his parents urged him to take accountability for harming Ekaterin in The Civil Campaign. Yet, in their married life, I see him subsuming Ekaterin in just the way Kareen Koudelka was concerned about (when explaining her preference for Mark over Miles). Will you write more about the Miles/Ekaterin marriage?

Lois McMaster Bujold:
I noticed awhile ago (based on the books that you were rating here) that you enjoy manga. After I recently started enjoying manga and anime myself, it occurred to me how fun it would be to watch Japanese-anime-style versions of some of your books. Is that an avenue that you have explored or are interested in exploring?

Do you ever travel to attend cons? Such as the ones in the Baltimore or DC area?
