"IFP: What was the inspiration for the Flat Earth series?
TL: The inspiration was, as I explain in my intro to the Norilana edition of Night’s Master, a word game I was playing with my mother, back in the 70s. Her clue to me was locked in the phrase “Go nowhere on a horse that fades”. This quickly translated into an idea for the first story in the book, (”Light Underground”). Other stories followed. And other books in the Flat Earth library. A lot of my inspirations have come from such so-called small things.

IFP: What about Earth’s Master? How will that fit into the Flat Earth series?
TL: Earth’s Master is about the struggle for who/what will end up master of the world – gods, men, or demons. Indifference, idiocy, cruelty – or some greater and more glittering element. I’m not going to know much that’s concrete about it until I start in to the book (which is usually the case with me when I write)."
