Top Retellings of Classic Tales

Anthony Allsopp asked David Wong:

This Book Is Full Of Spiders seemed a lot less bizzare and overall slightly more lucid and less crazy than JDATE. Was this intentional, and in your opinion how does JDATE3 stack up on the bizarre/crazy scale in comparison? Also its really weird how much JDATE sounds like a Jewish Dating site.

John Waring asked David Wong:

David - Big fan and love all your work. A lot of writers have trouble getting started; the ideas are there but the fear of failure, etc. stops the actual writing. Did you ever experience this and, if so, what got you started?

Erich w/ an h asked David Wong:

'22 marks the 10th anniversary of Spiders and the JDatE movie (Sundance '12). Are there plans for a special edition of Spiders like there was with the JDatE novel? Or an anniversary edition of the movie?

Anna
Anna asked David Wong:

I noticed that the purchasing power of a dollar in FVaFS is approximately equal to the purchasing power of a dollar today. Since inflation tends to drive up prices over time, and the book is set in the future, one would expect a difference. Was this a deliberate choice? Was it just for the sake of minimizing confusion?
