peer xanth-ony

My friend Kristen has interviewed Piers Anthony for her online magazine, Jitterbug Fantasia.
What I want is to have my novels published the way I write them, and that can be difficult in traditional publishing. Those who read them in search of body functions will be disappointed; there’s not that much. Some readers refused to read the Xanth novel The Color of Her Panties because they said there was a bad word in the title. I refuse to cater to the limitations of such folk. My ChroMagic series is an example of my integrated approach. It’s not about body functions, but where they are relevant, they are there. It’s about as simple as that.

( boingboing : Bill Gates 0wns Einstein, Groucho , Freud, Asimov, Fuller, et al )
