Hello, friends! 💛 In early September, I had the amazing opportunity to interview R.F. Kuang, author of The Poppy War trilogy, in anticipation of The Burning God's release. Details about the giveaway and questions with timestamps are all in the description box!
With Love,
Tiffany 💞
🎁 INTERNATIONAL GIVEAWAY 🎁
Enter to win a pre-order copy of THE BURNING GOD. Ends 11.01.2020 at 11:59PM PST:
1) Subscribe to my channel!
2) Comment your favorite character in TPW trilogy.
3) Comment your IG/Twitter handle.
🌟 QUESTIONS 🌟
1) How does it feel to be done with The Poppy War trilogy? What will you miss the most about this world? Do you have any words of advice or lasting messages for fans who are sad to part with the characters? 1:15
2) What has your experience been like in the publishing industry as a Science-Fiction Fantasy author when the genre has been historically so white and male-dominated? Your acceptance speech for the Hugo Awards really spoke to a lot of people. 9:27
3) The Poppy War heavily discusses themes of western imperialism, especially in Books 2 and 3, using the Hesperians as a parallel. The story doesn’t shy away from criticizing the West’s prejudiced beliefs that lead to their overt racism. Have you received any backlash from portraying the West as a villain in your novels? 16:20
4) While Rin & Nezha’s relationship can be interpreted as being romantic, there are no overtly romantic scenes or interactions between the two characters. (My friends and I were discussing how fantasy books sometimes like to depict a central romance as a way to entice readers/develop a strong fandom.) Was it a deliberate decision to exclude any major romantic narratives from this story? 21:32
5) Did you always intend for Rinezha to be the star-crossed lovers and for Kitay and Rin to be platonic friends? 26:20
6) Your next work is a dark academia book set in London. I read in one of your other interviews that you wanted to write a story about students vs. the government. Will we see any incorporation of Asian history into this novel? Would you ever return to writing another epic fantasy? 28:02
7) The military strategy in the books were some of my favorite scenes to read. How did your experience as a competitive debater in high school and History Major influence the way you created the logical puzzles and military strategies? 34:56
8) For many Asian readers, this was a book that really helped us connect with our history and made a lot of us feel seen. Though TPW trilogy is largely based on Asian history, readers from across the world who come from countries that also suffered under the brutality of Imperial Japan and Western Colonization found TPW to be an incredibly important story as it brings these often ignored atrocities to light. What has the reception been like from your family and from readers in other countries where TPW has been sold? 38:33
FAN SUBMISSION QUESTIONS:
1) FMK: Rin, Kitay, Nezha? 42:52
2) What made you decide to have Altan use a trident as his weapon of choice? 43:44
3) What was your rationale in making Rin dark-skinned when you yourself are light-skinned? 45:39
4) What were your intentions with Venka’s character arc? 49:46
THIS OR THAT 51:10
• Azula vs. Rin?
• Fire vs. Water?
• Chaaltan vs. Rinezha?
• TPW vs. TDR. vs TBG?
• Sushi vs. KBBQ vs. Dim Sum?

Timestamps: Introductions: 0:00 - 1:15 How does it feel to be done writing The Poppy War? 1:15 - 9:28 What has your experience been like in the publishing industry, specifically high fantasy, which has been traditionally white-male dominated? 9:29 - 16:18 tw. sexual harassment You talk a lot about western colonialism in the books. Within the industry have you seen and backlash with how you painted the Hisperians? 16:20 - 21:34 While Rin & Nezha’s relationship can be read as romantic, it’s not the focus of the book. Is there a certain reason why you decided to do that? 21:34 - 26:21 Did you always intend for Rin and Nezha to be that way as opposed to Kitay? 26:21 - 28:00 Moving back to your Oxford novel. Since it’s set in London, do you plan on having any Asian inspiration in terms of history? 28:02 - 32:20 Do you have an anticipated release date? 32:20 - 33:30 And will you ever go back to writing epic fantasy? 33:00 - 34:34 Will the Oxford novel be sci-fi/fantasy? 34:34 - 34:54 How did your experience with debate or being a history major help develop the logical puzzles and military tactics in the book? 34:54 - 38:35 The Poppy War trilogy is based on Chinese/Taiwanese history, but lots of readers across the world have felt seen.

I loved learning how she used her boyfriend when writing Kitay's character. I also found it fascinating how the trident represented Rin's attachment to Altan. Loved this whole interview! You two were fabulous, and I cannot wait to read The Burning God! 💕

✨R.F. Kuang being so excited to start her new project makes me so excited 😭😭😭she sounds like a baby girl on christmas day i love it here ✨Imagine having Rin's voice in your head every time you're doing something ✨Her experience in conventions honestly made my skin crawl, this is such an important issue that rarely gets spoken of, I'm so upset by the audacity of these mEN and the fact that they get away with it because of the lower standards that they've enjoyed for SO LONG ✨I love the fact that her new novel has a Haitian character!! Her conscious decision to represent said characters accurately and respectfully instead of erasing them like history usually does makes me even more excited to read her new book 🥺 ✨NOT HER KILLING NEZHA ASDHKFGF ✨my new bio: unhinged for better reasons ✨These questions were all so well thought out and researched, I've never had so much fun watching an author interview!!

I listened to this while I was at work so I can’t remember my thoughts on everything in particular but this was SUCH a good interview! I especially liked how you asked Rebecca a question about the SFF industry and it’s so disheartening to hear how awful some of her experiences have been :( I love how Kitay and Rin are written and how clearly platonic it is in a loving way. We so rarely see m/f friendships in adult fantasy that don’t turn into something more romantic like she said and it’s so refreshing to see their love as friends. Anyway loved this! So hard to pick a favorite character but probably Kitay...Rin is a hard second but he’s like the emotional heart of the story in many parts for me

This was an amazing interview! It was so interesting listening to where her head was at regarding the themes she wanted to address in the series and her issues with the publishing landscape in general. I also really appreciate your trigger warnings; especially for BIPOC writers, it's hard to hear the things that still go on at these conventions but it's also great to see authors like Rebecca speak out about it so predators can't hide in the shadows (it also sucks that they need to do that). The fact that Fonda Lee mentored Rebecca fills my heart with joy 'cause I read Jade City and TPW soon after each other, and both blew me right out of the water! Absolutely cannot wait to pre-order her dark academia book

My fave character would be Rin, of course. 😍😘❤️✨ This character just resonates with me. Feels very authentic, like a real live person. Most of them do, but Rin is just... Wow. Twitter: @peejamir IG: @pi.dzey

OMG i love this interview!!! you're so eloquent and the questions are so well thought out and it didn't feel awkward or anything 😳😳 my fav character at the moment ... i am a die hard fan for very humorous and hilarious characters but also pretty ones that's so good at what he's doing and doesn't take crap thrown at them ... basically so i can't choose between kitay/ramsa/chaghan 😭 (my twitter handle kindly really explains it thoroughly LMAO) i just love how expressive and proud they are of their intelligence and power, and their scenes are always iconic for me ♡ i hope they will be safe and sound until the end 😭😭 my ig : @/zhrzfiiraa my twt : @/kitayzsuren
