I’m fascinated by the way your fictional universes address religion. The Vorkosiverse is secular, although individuals may have personal religious beliefs. In Chalion the gods are real, present, dangerous, and woven into most aspects of society. In the Sharing Knife world the gods seem equally real but have abandoned humanity. How did these approaches evolve? Was it fun playing with religion and society like that?

This is much too large a question to answer in this tiny typing box, though if you check my assorted interviews from around the times the books were published, you may find some material. https://vorkosigan.fandom.com/wiki/Au...
But yes, fun, in that peculiar, absorbing way that writing long projects is fun. (And frustrating, and tiring, and exhilarating, and many other things.)

Hi Lois, I was curious as to wether you have ever been approached about writing any Star Wars novels? Would that be something you would be interested in? I often wondered how the process would work, would you be given a storyline and go with that, obviously sticking to certain histories within the canon. Apologies if you have been asked this many times which i suspect you have. Thank you for your time.
