I'm so excited! Check out my very first interview at Lectitans! Here's a little bitty excerpt:
The prejudice Lon's relatives have against fairies is similar to many prejudices apparent in the modern world. How do you think fantasy settings affect authors' and readers' interactions with universal themes like prejudice?
I think fantasy is a great way to explore touchy issues in our society. One of my favorite examples of this is Star Trek: The Next Generation. That series touched on so many modern issues like sexism (including GLBT issues), abortion, racism, war, and capitalism, and since they did it in a fantasy setting, they could get away with saying a lot of things no one else would say. Some episodes were VERY thinly veiled allegories for current events. The fantasy setting gives a little bit of distance from the actual situations and lets you think about the issues themselves without all the baggage from the specifics. It's a great vehicle for expanding your universe to include ideas you might not have thought of if they hadn't been presented in such a clean, unattached way.
