Bethany asked Michael J. Sullivan:

Hi Michael, I was wondering if there was any possibility of more short stories featuring Royce and Hadrian in the vein of The Jester or Professional Integrity? I thoroughly enjoy the full length novels, but sometimes I need a quick fix when I don't have time for a longer read/listen.

Michael J. Sullivan Yeah, I'm sure there will be a short story here or there. Those particular ones came about because of invitations to anthologies I was invited to. Once the story had been in the anthology on an exclusive basis, then the rights revert to me and I can distribute them to people. So I guess I have to get invited to submit a new story ;-)

I am working on a short right now. It's not Riyria (it's for the Legends of the First Empire series) and it involves Suri and Minna. I felt that since I have several Riyria shorts I should include one for that other series as well.

What is it that set's your writing apart from the host? In other words what will make me pick up your books and keep on picking them up? Cheers Geoff PS not trying to be aggressive, really need to prioritise my expenditure and time.

Jayma

Jayma asked Michael J. Sullivan:

Just finished the series! One thing that bothered me, though. At the beginning of Theft of Swords, we learn Riyria has been together 12 years. Fast forward to Rise of Empire, even further to Heir of Novron, and we still hear both Royce and Hadrian say they’ve been together 12 years, when we can tell that several years have passed in each volume. For continuity’s sake, shouldn’t this be 15-16 years by the end of HoN?

Christy

Christy asked Michael J. Sullivan:

This is kind of a question, and I really don't know where else to put it or if I should, but you're an author that interacts frequently, consistently, and well with your readers (me included) https://kimharrison.wordpress.com/2015/10/12/you-only-hurt-the-one-you-love/ Is there anyway that people who don't hugely use social media can help besides just buy a couple of books and tell a few friends that you know of?
