Pat Rothfuss Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Hi Pat, one last question. What do you think of those poor people who have never watched Buffy?I feel sad for them.... They don't know what they're missing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Rothfuss Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Hi Pat,To what extent does consciously following, avoiding and subverting tropes influence your creative process?P.S. Big fan - it's awesome that you are doing this Q&A.Do you honestly expect me to answer an essay-style question like that in the next two minutes before I have to tear out of here?

Pat Rothfuss Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Well folks. I can hear the churchbells outside, so I know it's 5:00. Normally I'd hang out for a while, but I have to go meet Sarah and Oot for dinner. I haven't seen either of them yet today, so I really don't want to keep them waiting.... Thanks for all the great questions. I hope I managed to give you a laugh or two, even if I couldn't give everyone the information they really wanted.... I really don't go in for spoilers. All my best, pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted August 6, 2011 Author Share Posted August 6, 2011 Thanks, Pat!That was a fun one, if hectic. How'd everyone like this approach to a Q&A? Maybe we'll invite more authors to give it a go, if people liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sluie92 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Thank you so much Pat! I feel especially greedy having taken up two questions whilst you could have been spending time with your family, so I want you to know how much it's appreciated. I have no way of expressing how much except to tell you that your books are on my top shelf next to Terry Pratchett's (well he takes up a shelf and a half by himself but you get the idea).Katie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerec Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Ah, damn timezones. Meanwhile in Australia: I just woke up. *sigh*Some good questions and answers. I enjoyed reading this topic, and now I think of it, I didn't have any questions that weren't already asked so it's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed reading this topic, and now I think of it, I didn't have any questions that weren't already asked so it's all good.I was actually reading the thread as it went down and was considering a question, but ultimately decided that the good questions for this format had already been asked. So good on ya board.Though I was sorely tempted to ask him how he was so awesome, to be a suck-up and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we'll invite more authors to give it a go, if people liked it.I concur that it was fun and would definitely like to see another round of Q&A done in this style. Pat actually did those a few times on his blog already (which I regularly missed due to them being done spontaneously). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andhaira Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Great idea with these Q&A's Ran. However, in the future I (and I am sure others) might prefer more advance notice of there being an author Q&A'd. Say, an announcement on the forums around 3 weeks or so before the interview. Apart from that, perhaps some way to ensure that forum regulars have preference for getting their questions answered first, before newbies who join the site just for that one Q&A and will never come back here again.
