If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?
J.W. Webb Middle Earth - I'd like to have a chat with Gandalf on the Greenway, or share a pint with Strider in the Prancing Pony. I'd probably smoke too much pipeweed too :)

What is the reading order for your books? The way the series is listed on Goodreads conflicts with what it says on Amazon. I want to read them all but would like to do so in the proper order.
J.W. Webb Hi Len, I'm sorry I've only just got to this one year later! If you are still interested, we are rearranging the book order on Amazon as there has been some confusion. As of now, the books read as follows:

Gray Wolf: Corin 1.
Legends of the Longsword: Corin 2.
Wolves and Assassins: Corin 3.
The Shattered Crown: Corin 4.
The Lost Prince: Corin 5.
The Glass Throne: Corin 6.
The Emerald Queen (Journeyman trilogy 1 - sequel coming in 2021.) EQ is set 7 years after The Glass Throne.
Blood Feud (Berserker Trilogy 1 - sequel coming this December.) BF is set 1000 years after The Emerald Queen.
Gol: The Series Prequel - Gol can be read first or last as the story is set 1000 years before the Corin books.

I hope that helps! All the best, JWW

How do you deal with writer’s block?
J.W. Webb I've never had it - not yet anyway. But I think I would just do something else, like build a chicken shed or something...free the mind to wander again and let the muse back in.

What’s the best thing about being a writer?
J.W. Webb I don't have to surface at 4.30 am like I did when I drove trucks :) Actually it's reading reviews about my work and hearing from folks. Creating something from nothing and putting it out there for others to enjoy is a special gift we writers are blessed with - I cherish that.

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?
J.W. Webb Stick at it, enjoy it, and most of all believe in yourself. Take criticism on the chin and move forward. To quote Jimmy Buffett 'Follow your hunches and roll with the punches.'

What are you currently working on?
J.W. Webb I am two thirds through the second draft of The Glass Throne - book 4 Legends of Ansu

How do you get inspired to write?
J.W. Webb The muse within...actually I don't wait for that. You have to get stuff down, spill it out and words will follow words. I plot and scheme away whilst doing other jobs, also music helps to free the muse (but not when I'm writing :)

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?
J.W. Webb The Lost Prince is volume 3 in the Legends of Ansu series. The tale follows directly on from The Shattered Crown and features the same cast but with a few more shady characters thrown in. The entire series is drafted out until the end of book 5 - The Reluctant King.
