I read "Fairest" after having done some study on Heian period Japanese court poetry. Squee! I can't possibly be imagining it, right? How did you decide on that culture?

Levi asked Gail Carson Levine:

Hello! I got into writing through your wonderful book Writer to Writer and soon after I read Writing Magic. Keep up the good writing! I'm doing a project on the publishing process, and I was wondering if you had any extra facts? (I'm running short on 'em-can't find much). I decided to ask one of my favorite authors, instead of reading some random person's blog and finding useless info. Are you Thank you!

A Goodreads user asked Gail Carson Levine:

Lately, I've been thinking about the ideas I get for writing. Instead of writing for fun, I've been trying to find a story idea that is fandom and movie-worthy, and any ideas that aren't like that I turn away. When you first started writing, did you write for fun, and then work on really perfecting and polishing your works? And once a story, even a short one, is written, you can always go back and change it, right?
