Howard Brazee
Howard Brazee asked Sherwood Smith:

When does Tribute take place relative to other books in that world?

Sherwood Smith Centuries earlier. Sage Empress is a few centuries after that, and the next one will almost catch up with Phoenix Feather

Tia
Tia asked Sherwood Smith:

I've just discovered and devoured Inda and Fox. It is amazingly rare to encounter books where characters are so diverse, yet each developed with care and sensitivity, resulting in a consistently compelling cast. Could you tell me more about how you get into each person's head, with their nuanced attitudes towards gender, sexuality, and identity? Did you take a conscious stance on race being a non-issue?

Howard Brazee
Howard Brazee asked Sherwood Smith:

Where potty training is learning a spell - do newborn babies wear diapers/nappies? Are they cleaned by other spells? I know at least once you had an injured person glad to wake up in time to do the spell, so I infer that there was a chance others couldn't do it for her.
