Question meme . . .

If [livejournal.com profile] ellen_kushner was brave enough to post this, then hey, why not me?*

If you could force me to write anything, what would it be?

(*Realizing, of course, that I'm not saying I'll actually do it. I'm just curious as to how people will respond . . .)

On LJ or in general?

I wish you could finish the Ice Palace fantasy. It really sounded like a book I would love to read.

I would like to see you begin a series for young women. Your girls are strong, capable, bright, witty, and have certainly inherited many of their traits from you. You take so much pride in their abilities and I suspect that you secretly pride yourself in how you (and Rob) have raised them. I could see you write a book (or 4 or 10) about a young woman (say Fiona's age) who does something amazing with her intelligence and strength. (Sci-fi? Mystery? Girl empowerment? Fiction, with rings of truth? [aren't they all?]).

And your girls would be a tremendous asset during the process and I bet they'd love to be a part of your creative process.

A mainstream novel. I thought the non-fantasy parts of WILD SWANS were terrific, and that you should do more like that.

Something in which your worry takes a back seat to your hope.

Really, I'd just love to see more fantasy fiction from you, given how much I enjoyed your prior works - any universe or plot. But I'd also enjoy reading your memoirs, your thoughts on faith, poetry (and I don't even really like poetry) a cookbook of your favorite recipes ... anything you felt like sharing.

Anything that got you excited about the process again. Something that reassured and inspired you. Something you could finish and feel good about, no matter if it ever saw print or an audience or anything.

Basically, something for you.

Actually I'd like to see a traditional British kids fantasy with kids in traditional British public schools and tuck shops and such.

I think you'd have fun with it and I'd enjoy reading it!

A hymn for the next iteration of the Lutheran hymnal.
