Steve asked L.E. Modesitt Jr.:

L.E. Modesitt Jr. I've used the traditional length of 18 inches, so that two cubits equal a yard.

Do you consider Recluse to be more science fiction or fantasy? If fantasy, do you have any preference as to if you write science fiction or fantasy?

Paul
Paul asked L.E. Modesitt Jr.:

Mr Modesitt I really enjoy your exploration ethical issues especially economics in earlier societies. I wanted to send you this you tube link of a British Museum tale of 4000 year old contraband. It is just 7.58 minutes and I am sure the sure is about factorages or possible early high holders. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQIBf7eeXG8 Thank you for all your books Paul
