Exclusive Interview: “Kitty’s Mix-Tape” Author Carrie Vaughn

 

Since 2005, writer Carrie Vaughn has written more than a dozen urban fantasy tales about Kitty Norville, an advice-dispensing werewolf. But she’s also, in the same time, written even more short stories set in the same fictional universe. In the following email interview, Vaughn talks about Kitty’s Mix-Tape (paperback, Kindle, audiobook), the second collection of Kitty Norville short stories, as well as about her two Robin Hood-related novellas, The Ghosts Of Sherwood (paperback, Kindle) and The Heirs Of Locksley (paperback, Kindle).

While so many post-apocalyptic novels are bleak and hopeless, Carrie Vaughn bucked that tradition with her (relatively) more hopeful post-apocalyptic mystery Bannerless. In the following email interview about The Wild Dead (paperback, Kindle), the second book in The Bannerless Saga, Vaughn discusses where she got the idea for this second post-apocalyptic mystery, what inspired it, and where this series may (or may not, as the case may be) be going.

Exclusive Interview: Martians Abroad Author Carrie Vaughn

Historian S.E. Grove once said, “Memory is a tricky thing… It doesn’t just recall the past, it makes the past. If you remember our trip as a few minutes, it will be a few minutes.
