Alma Alexander is a scientist by education, duchess by historical accident, and an author who has written more than a score of novels, including The Secrets of Jin-shei, published in dozens of editions and languages around the world. Known as the Duchess of Fantasy, she is also a blogger sharing writing tips, and glimpses of both the mundane and magic of a fantasy author's life.

This interview was recorded in Fall 2021. Due to numerous factors, I was unable to get around to finishing the production until June 2022.

This interview is magical. She is one of the smartest, most original authors I’ve interviewed. She talks about her process, her life, what makes novels and short stories work. In some ways it was a master class in writing. At the time of this interviewed, her husband and partner had died six months before and she was still processing how to get back to writing. Fortunately for all of us, she has returned and since then has released the 20th Anniversary Edition of Changer of Days—the duoology as a single book as originally designed. On July 10th she released a memoir describing her and her husband’s meeting, love story, and her loss.
