Dear Miss Megan Lindholm:
*B ]0g!a/\Z#O7_,FK}w
'~!J+[ZYW It is such a great honor to send this mail to you as your fans of The Farseer Trilogy and The Tawny Man in China. To our view, You are the most favorite SF author among numerous SF authors. Fitz Chivalry Farseer comes to be No.1 hero in fantasy world , and Skill attracts us more than any other kind of magic. The Farseer Trilogy touched our souls. We can feel vivid aspiration and love between lines which are driving us to think more about life. The power in the Farseer has made us feel complete in soul. We have a fresh attitude toward life and give more love to family and friends.
Xz Fz y8f+mA Although the culture and value varies in the West and the East, love, royalty, responsibility, sacrifice and dedication are eternal virtue what all races in the world are pursuing for. Your great works are attracting more SF readers in China as well as in other countries. It is a pity that SC editions of The Tawny Man, The Liveship Traders and The Solider Son are not available till now except for The Farseer Trilogy. We are eager to be the first to read these titles and more interesting titles from you. Here we collect some questions from your fans. We wish they won’t bother you too much time./rC[o*|U_^}

(a(a"\'B7SP#S6o!T To date, I have written nine novels and several stories set in the Realm of the Elderlings.  It is a world I very much enjoy.  Right now, I am working on a trilogy set in a whole new world.  Yet, I often miss writing about the Farseer characters that I have come to know so well. It is like missing friends who have gone on a very long vacation!  If I had a wonderful idea for a story set in that world, I would not hesitate to write it. But I would not write a story in that world just for the sake of using the setting again or profiting from it.  I think that would be unfair to the readers and to myself.

2.    Many fans say The The Liveship Traders exceeds The Farseer Trilogy and The Tawny Man. How do you think about it?　（活船胜过刺客？）;o }\nNS

3pO%P:[8AG Although both tales take place in the same world, they are written rather differently.  To me, one of the major differences in writing the books were that The Farseer Trilogy was written in the first person and The Liveship Trilogy used many viewpoints.  Some readers like the intimacy of first person and getting to know one character, such as Fitz, very well. Others seem to enjoy the variety of multiple viewpoints. I greatly enjoyed writing all nine books.  I do not think I really prefer any one of the trilogies over the others.

5e(j$K$_&j ?[!A5T h;yH'~-g1m
I think whatever character I am currently writing about is always my favorite at that moment.  Certainly I am enjoying writing about Nevare now.  But I also loved writing about Fitz and the Fool, Brashen, Althea, Kennit and long before them, Wizard and Ki and Vandien.  (Those last three are from books I wrote as Megan Lindholm.)  I love all my characters, even my villains.  I think that a writer has to ‘put on’ the character and try to understand him or her from the inside before the writer can convincingly tell a story from that character’s point of view.  I really can’t do that unless I love the character.

4.    How did you create such unique magic –Skill?　（怎么创造的精技？）W:T2vnU(dR$@Zt8tA6h
I am not sure that I can claim the Skill is a unique magic.  It combines elements that are often used in fantasy and science fiction stories.  There is a telepathy aspect, and the idea that we can focus our minds on our own bodies to do things such as healing ourselves.  Some bio-feedback studies have shown that we actually can affect our own bodies in terms of slowing or speeding the heartbeat, or using meditation to lower blood pressure.  So I think the idea of healing yourself with the Skill simply draws on that.  I don’t think I can claim to have come up with a completely unique idea.  I simply did what writers always do—we borrow ideas, mix them with other ideas, and dress them in new clothes and send them out again.

c.o 5.    What inspired you to get down to writing The Farsser Trilogy?　（刺客系列灵感何来？）/o#M1bk7h%n

@*yPRA"\Gm'R As with most of my books, the ideas for the Farseer Trilogy began to gather themselves together years before I actually began to write it. Nowadays, when I get an idea for a possible story, I save it in a file on my computer. But back then, I’d scribble the idea down on a piece of paper and drop it in my desk drawer.  For several years there was a torn corner from an envelope in that drawer.  On it, I’d written, “What if magic was addictive, and that addiction was completely destructive?”  From time to time, when I was working on other books and projects, I’d take the scrap of paper out and look at it and wonder what sort of story I could write about it.  I was also intrigued by the idea of writing a book that used all the tired old clichés of fairy tales and fantasy stories, but made them seem new again.  There are many clichés in our fantasy traditions: the poor boy who is secretly the rightful heir to the throne, the wise old man who teaches a young apprentice, the three sons of a king, one of whom is treacherous--- I used many of those clichés in Farseer as well as the idea of an addictive magic.  Those were the two basic ideas that collided to become the Farseer Trilogy.8F|2F j3_&LHL8l%}9y

My current favorite author is George RR Martin.  He is currently writing a very long tale called “A Song of Ice and Fire” The first book in the set is called A Game of Thrones.  The story is not completed yet, but I’m very excited about these books.  They are rich in characters and full of action, with many unexpected turns of events.  I think he is creating his masterpiece with this story.

The books that first inspired me to desire to become a fantasy writer are probably familiar to many Chinese readers as well. The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien made me realize the vast potential of fantasy.  I was a young teen-ager when I first read them. I still feel great pleasure whenever I pick up those books.  When I open them, no matter which page, I can fall into the story again and be just as enthralled as ever.  I hope that people do not stop with just seeing the movies.  The movies from the book are wonderful, but there is so much that happens in the book that is not shown on the screen. I think everyone who enjoys fantasy should read these books.  _9|c3y'p W

For fantasy stories set in a contemporary urban setting, I recommend the Canadian author Charles de Lint.  He has a wonderful knack for bringing magic into an every-day modern setting. His stories are enchanting, and he makes it seem as if I could find a magical place simply by buying a train ticket to Canada.  Perhaps some day I shall try that!4MQTCb h@

1zK+DuRfb Among the other fantasy writers I enjoy are Steven Brust, Fiona McIntosh, Roger Zelazny, Fritz Leiber, Emma Bull, Frank Herbert, Guy Gavriel Kay, Theodore Sturgeon, Anne McCaffrey--- well, the list could become endless if I went on for too long!

7.    Many SF novels have been shot into movies and many fans believe The Farseer Trilogy will be shot one day. Some even have made a list of Hollywood male stars suitable for role of Fitz Chivalry Farseer, Will you intend to shoot The Farsser?（是否会拍电影？）
&k%s N)Tcq4uQ8I tc6m i3jB5r|fK6J]
I think that every writer likes to day-dream about a movie made from his books.  And of course we all imagine which stars we would like to play the roles, and who we would choose to be the director, and where the movie should be filmed.  While this is an amusing pastime, right now there are no plans to make any movies based on any of my books. But perhaps someday . .  .  I can keep daydreaming about it until then. o#[c!['gIv8~

以“古灵国度”为背景，到目前为止，我已经写了九本小说和若干个故事①。我个人是很喜欢这个世界的。现在，我正在写一个以全新的世界为背景的三部曲。《刺客》里的人物让我很怀念，我是那么的了解他们。我对他们的怀念，就像是在一个悠长的假期里，想念不在身边的好朋友一样。如果我想到了可以写进那个世界的好主意，我肯定会把它写出来。但是，我不会因为感情因素而再次使用“古灵”的设定，也不会因为那么做会让作品好卖而再次启用它。我想，这样做无论对我还是对读者来说都不件好事。+_1W8NtW

`0|4} 尽管两个故事都发生在同一个世界里，可它们的写作方式却大有不同。就我来说，其中一个主要的区别是，在写《刺客正传》的时候，我用的是第一人称，而在《活船》里，我则使用了很多不同的视点。有些读者喜欢第一人称的亲昵，喜欢详加了解一个角色，就好比我写的斐兹。另外一些则喜欢有很多不同的视点。这九本书都让我写得很快活。我对这些故事的喜爱是同等的。

我不是确定我是否能将精技称为独一无二的魔法。它是由一些在奇幻和科幻小说里常见的元素组成的。其中包括心灵感应，还有靠精神力就能治愈身体上的伤害的这个主意⑥。一些关于生理反馈现象的研究证明，思维确实能够对身体产生影响，比如像加快或者减慢心跳，或者通过沉思来降低血压。所以，我想用精技魔法来做治疗手段的灵感就是从此而来的。我不认为我可以宣称这完全是我的创造。我只是做了作家常做的一件事：我们借用别人的主意，然后把它们融合在一起，加工一下再拿出来用。

e7e{/{rm-b pvE:ikw hB
和我大多数的书一样，在开始写之前，《刺客正传》的构思也是经过了许多年的积累和思考才确定的。时值今日，当我想到一个故事的灵感时，我会把它记录在我电脑里的文档中。不过在以前，我会把它写在一张纸上，然后扔到我书桌的抽屉里⑦。在那张纸上，我曾经写过：“如果魔法会上瘾，而这瘾头又是毁灭性的话，事情会怎么样？”有时，当我在写作其它的故事的时候，我会拿出那张纸片来，思考我能根据它写出怎样的一个故事。我也曾考虑过，能不能写本书，让里头充满了那些已经被童话故事和奇幻小说用烂了的一些衬腔滥调，却又能让人觉得耳目一新。我们的奇幻故事里已经产生了很多老套的桥段了，像是一个不为人知的穷孩子，却是王国真正的继承人，教导年轻学徒的一定是个睿智的老人，国王有三个儿子，其中一个很邪恶之类。就好像我把会让人上瘾的魔法这个想法写进了《刺客》一样，我在这个系列里也加进了很多老套的东西。这两个基本想法的撞击，最终形成了《刺客正传》。

⑤Megan Lindholm是荷布阿姨自1971年就开始使用的笔名（不过那时她还没法发表奇幻小说），直到她开始使用罗苹·荷布这个名字之后，她没有再次用这个名字出书（除非计入她与四十多个作家合写的那本臭名昭著的《亚特兰大之夜》），不过现在也偶尔会生产一些短篇。
