The secret to writing ‘the same but different,’ with Mary Robinette Kowal

The secret to writing ‘the same but different,’ with Mary Robinette Kowal

1078. Mary Robinette Kowal talks about going from writing magic-filled Regency romances to Hugo-nominated science fiction, what it's like to work with an agent, and how she keeps her career moving forward. Plus, she gave us three great book recommendations (and I've already read and loved one of them!).
