Interview




Connie Willis:
You ask the questions

Connie Willis didn't exactly burst onto the science fiction scene when she began her writing career in 1971 with a story in Worlds of Fantasy. In fact, for the next decade she remained a relatively unknown writer, publishing short stories only sporadically and releasing no novels. But that changed in the early 1980s when she began writing full time. Her ever-increasing list of short stories quickly caught the attention of readers and editors alike, and she became a sought-after property.

Today there is hardly a science fiction fan out there who hasn't heard Connie Willis's name or read one of her books. In fact, Willis is one of the most popular and critically acclaimed authors publishing in the genre, having already collected six Nebula Awards, five Hugo Awards and the John W. Campbell Award. This month Willis' latest book Bellwether (see our review in Off the Shelf), hits the shelves, and if it's any indication, she is only getting better...

Next week, Connie Willis will sit down with Science Fiction Weekly to answer questions from our readers about her writing career, her current projects and whatever else our readers want to know.
