Last i checked, you were nearly finished with the red sister trilogy. Once that's done, do you have any ideas or plans for the next book yet? Any hints you'd be willing to share?
Mark Lawrence
No ideas, no. I'm not a planner. I come to the blank page with a blank brain.

I'm at a festival at the moment, by obligation. I was going to be sad all day but then I remembered I had Red Sister downloaded on my phone. Skies are blue now, but it's so loud out here, and all I have is my phone, earbuds and a bench. Do you recommend any playlists to listen to while reading Red Sister? I'd like to drown out this crap music.

Hello again! I wanted to ask whether first-person comes more intuitively to you than third-person? I've always found in writing the latter that it feels stilted to me—because my observation has to be objective in constructing the scene, not subjective where I can sort of do whatever—whereas the former is much more natural to me. The Broken Empire Trilogy and what it stands for made me think to ask you!

After the completion of this latest trilogy (which is amazing), do you have any ideas where your writing will take you (us) next? Staying in the Broken Empire or do you have another world building experience planned? P.S. would love to see Broken Empire as a Telltale Games experience!
