Share sushi with the award-winning writer Wen Spencer as we discuss her origins as a writer of Pern fanfic, the similar faux pas we each made during our early days of fandom, how a friend inspired her professional career by lending her a stack of poorly written books, the dream which gave birth to her Compton Crook Award-winning first novel Alien Taste, the true reason the novel is her fiction form of choice, the impossibility of ever making something perfect, what her agent really means when he says "well, you could do that," why it's so important to be able to write more than one type of book, whether she knows how her series will end, and much more.
