Who<\/strong>: Pierce Brown<\/p>\n

Claim To Fame<\/strong>: Pierce Brown is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising<\/em><\/a>, Golden Son<\/em><\/a>, Morning Star<\/em><\/a>, and Iron Gold<\/em><\/a>. His work has been published in thirty-three languages and thirty-five territories. While trying to make it as a writer, he worked as a manager of social media at a startup tech company, toiled as a peon on the Disney lot at ABC Studios, did his time as an NBC page, and gave sleep deprivation a new meaning during his stint as an aide on a U.S. Senate campaign. Now he lives in Los Angeles, where he scribbles tales of spaceships, wizards, ghouls, and most things old or bizarre.<\/p>\n

Where To Find Pierce<\/strong>:\u00a0His\u00a0Website<\/a>,\u00a0Amazon<\/a>, Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n

Praise For Pierce<\/strong>: \u201cPierce Brown is a prodigy. As great as the first book of the Red Rising Trilogy is,\u00a0Golden Son\u00a0is even better. A wild ride full of suspense, intrigue, and serious ass-kicking bravado, it\u2019s expertly written and emotionally engaging, with top-notch universe-building that begs for further exploration. I want more!\u201d<\/em> \u2014 Christopher Golden<\/a>,\u00a0New York Times<\/i>\u00a0bestselling author of\u00a0Snowblind<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

\n

When<\/a>\u00a0do you like to write? Are you\u00a0regimented<\/a>\u00a0about your writing routine?<\/h3>\n

I write from eight am to about three pm most days. For me, consistency is important. Elsewise the guiltmonster will slump my shoulders and eat away my confidence. Truth be told, I can\u2019t always write on command, but I can always work on a project. If the words aren\u2019t flowing or I\u2019ve run afoul plot indecision, I\u2019ll tinker with the worldbuilding until I get a burst of inspiration again.<\/p>\n

Where<\/a>\u00a0do you like to write? What does your ideal work environment look like?<\/h3>\n

I used to be able to write anywhere. I guess I\u2019ve gotten more particular as I\u2019ve gone on. My preferred place now is in my office at my desktop computer. It\u2019s easier to leave the writing there when I\u2019ve finished, and not export the mental clutter to the rest of my life.<\/p>\n

I think I\u2019ve made my ideal work environment. Right now I\u2019m sitting at my desk with a pot of coffee. The birds are chirping as they eat from the loquat tree just out the window. My dog is snoring in a chair behind me. My reference books are all on the wall. All I need is a live-in masseuse.<\/p>\n

Do you have any\u00a0pre-writing rituals<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0habits<\/a>\u00a0before you sit down to write?<\/h3>\n

Too many. I should have none. It feels more badass to have none.<\/p>\n

Do you struggle at all with that dreaded enemy of writing:\u00a0writer\u2019s block<\/a>? Do you think such a thing exists?<\/h3>\n

Ridiculous. Of course it exists. If someone says it doesn\u2019t exist, they\u2019re either Stephen King, or they\u2019re gatekeeping. It exists for me not because I don\u2019t have ideas, but because I can\u2019t choose WHICH idea to go with. The only way I overcome it is to skip the scene or write through it knowing that I\u2019ll have to come up with something better when I\u2019m done. But as they say, an object in motion stays in motion. An object at rest…<\/p>\n

Deciding on an idea to pursue writing about can be the most challenging aspect for a writer. How do you come to find the stories and lives that become the subjects of your books? Are there habits or daily tricks you use to think about book ideas?<\/h3>\n

I believe in practicing enhanced free association\u2014which is a fancy way of saying to surround yourself with stimuli that are connected (even esoterically) to your story. Music and images certainly summon a strong reaction in me. Often, I find myself trying to channel the emotions conveyed through a song into my story.<\/p>\n

What is the hardest part or biggest problem to solve when you\u2019re world-building beyond a single book in a series<\/a>? Does it get easier or harder?<\/h3>\n

It gets more difficult because of all the information one has to keep straight. Not a book goes bye that I don\u2019t find myself contracting in some small fashion some of the world-building that went before. It\u2019s enough to make one feel constrained for fear of violating some earlier precept. But to err is human and all that\u2014plus my inbox fills up with readers who noticed the contradiction, so my second editions often have fixes in the text.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

In addition to the books<\/a>, you\u2019ve also written screenplays<\/a>. Do you have different mental frameworks for writing each? Do the mechanics of your writing routines change too?<\/h3>\n

I find it more difficult to fall in love with the screenplays I write. Mostly because of how the process works and, by virtue of the profession, once I finish a screenplay my task is done and it is now in the hands of a director or a producer. The mental framework must change. The story must be drastically simplified. There can be no digressions (the meat and potatoes of any novelist). Flashbacks are to be avoided, if possible. So unless you\u2019re writing Memento<\/em><\/a>, the writing must be far more linear, far more disciplined.<\/p>\n

What does a successful writing day mean for you? And how do you finish out a day of writing? Do you have a process, or is it just that you know you\u2019ve hit a natural stopping point?<\/h3>\n

Hemingway said to stop writing when you know what you\u2019ll be writing the next day. I don\u2019t adhere to that completely, but I do use it as a sort of touchstone. When I\u2019m in the thick of it, ten pages is a good day\u2019s work. Often though I\u2019ll only have completed four. I used to get down on myself for that, but it\u2019s all part of the process.<\/p>\n

Great writers tend to be voracious readers<\/a>. What does your reading habit look like? Can you recommend some of your favorite writers and books?<\/h3>\n

Schizophrenic. I\u2019ll read almost anything, but tend to focus on history or poetry when writing a book so as to maintain the individuality of my writing voice. Currently, I\u2019m finishing Persian Fire<\/em><\/a> an incredible exploration of the rise and decline of the Persian Empire by Tom Holland (who has an equally wonderful book in Rubicon<\/em><\/a>. Favorites range from Alexandre Dumas and Mary Shelley (Frankenstein<\/em><\/a> is the most relevant science fiction to our modern world, in my mind) to Steven Pressfield<\/a> and TS Eliot.<\/p>\n

What is your\u00a0advice to aspiring writers<\/a>?<\/h3>\n

Read. Gotta get fuel in the tank before you feed it to the engine.<\/p>\n
