Vermont author Dean Whitlock writes fantasy and science fiction for young and not-so-young adults. His stories have appeared in Asimov’s, Fantasy & Science Fiction, and Aboriginal SF, as well as in anthologies in the US and abroad. His two YA fantasy novels were published by Clarion Books, but now he publishes independently under the Boatman Press imprint. An Air Force brat, Dean has lived in a dozen states and three foreign countries, a life of travel that gave him plenty of time to read in the car and now enriches his writing.

The important thing is to keep writing. You can always fix it in the rewrites.(less)

Seriously, the best thing is creating new worlds, new characters, new plots, and being the very first person in the world to read these books. Of course, seeing and hearing how people have enjoyed my books is also a very big plus.(less)

still great reading the second time around

Murderbot’s personality, with its tinge of Asperger’s blended with abused child, seems even richer and more believable. Ditto for the other characters. I envy Well’s ability.
