Possible questions.

Your Exile series was science fiction that read like fantasy and your
Galactic Milieu series was science fiction with a central mystery.  Did you
consciously try to break down genre barriers?  If so why?

You wrote Black Trillium as a collaboration with Andre Norton and Marion
Zimmer Bradley, but each of you wrote separate sequels.  What was it like
working with both these late authors?  Why were the sequels all done
separately?

Your Rampart Worlds books seem much more traditional space opera than your
Exile series or even Milieu.  Was that done deliberately or does your style
reflect your subject?

You write both fantasy and science fiction.  Which do you prefer?  Do you
approach writing a fantasy book in the same way as you do a science fiction
book?
