Soumyajeet Addya asked Mark Lawrence:

Hey Mark! Do you plot everything in the beginning or do you keep plotting as you write your story?

Mark Lawrence Hi. First, kudos for asking the same question 7 times.

Second, I don't plot anything at all in the beginning and rather little as I go. Stories unfold for me as a series of answers to "what if" questions.

A Goodreads user asked Mark Lawrence:

After recently discussing female characters in fantasy, I am so much more excited to see the Red Sister deliver! Was she more challenging to write or was a different protagonist? Also, if I may, which of your characters would you like to share a pint with? I think Jalan would make an interesting night but I'd probably end up in a boat with crabs. I'd love to pick Makin's brain!
