So I have this phone interview with them on Friday. Any suggestions/tips? I always get nervous before an interview, and don't really know what to say or ask sometimes, even though I know my field well. I'm worried, for some reason, that I might not be enough of a gamer for them, even though it's the book side. I've read a few of their books, and will be checking out the new Mirrorstone books off the shelves at work tomorrow. I met one of their authors at LTUE (Dan Willis, I think was the guy) and have been meaning to read at least parts of his book, so I'll have to do that before Friday--show that I know their work at least a little.
Thing is, I can't help but feel a little worried that it's not the kind of thing I really want to do--it's series fiction. Yet it's a start in the right direction, and I might be able to bring something to it and help it improve. Then there's the philosophical question we've been discussing in the books forum--can a fantasy book be dependent on another creator's world and still be good? Yet there's something to be said for series fiction helping create readers. I mean heck, I loved Trixie Belden and Nancy Drew when I was growing up.
Anybody have any thoughts on this, particularly on how to approach the interview?
