About
Lois McMaster Bujold
Lois McMaster Bujold (born 2 November 1949, Columbus, Ohio) is an American author of science fiction and fantasy works, most noted for the works in her Vorkosigan Saga.
“You don’t have any inhibitions at all, do you?” “Not in combat.”
I cannot emphasize enough that I do not start with a plan or agenda and mechanically manipulate characters and events to carry it out. I set characters in motion, and let them teach me what the book is.
"I thought you saw meaning in that sort of thing," said Vorkosigan. "In the abstract. Most days it's just stumbling around in the dark with the rest of creation, smashing into things and wondering why it hurts."
