In addition to having written what I think is one of the best novels of the 21st century, Tim Powers is just a delight to talk to. Listen in on our conversation that spanned: The state of publishing Escaping into fantasy to find transcendence Crafting a realistic and plausible narrative of good and evil as a Christian writer

Wonderful interview! It was interesting and quite entertaining to learn about Tim's writing process, how he "tricks" himself into writing. He gave a very detailed account of how he sets up a novel. I just bought one of his books on Kindle, I had not read anything by him.
I read all his early stuff back in the ancient days when I met him and others at the Planet 10 bookshop in Pasadena. I'm eager to catch up on what he's been writing since I left the country.

That was such a gem! I'm going to start trying it as well.

Excellent interview! Lots of good stuff in here.
Thank you, Aidan! So glad you enjoyed it.
