Mieville Crossing Borders

mieville-china.jpg

China Mieville, author of The City & the City and all around great guy, spent last week discussing Tolkien, Lovecraft, the melancholy of having so many ideas he will never write, and the history of the genre on the Amazon website Omnivoracious.

This week, China has crossed the online bookstore border!

Borders Sci-Fi Babel Clash welcomes China today for a two week foray of multiple conversations. The premise? Once a day Monday through Friday for two weeks, China will post a 140-character tweeted conversation starter that—hopefully—will lead to a series of great discussions.

Here is the one China posted today:

Does micro blogging have something to offer SF/F/H? Twitter fiction?

Visit Babel Clash for the next two weeks and take advantage of having one of the best science fiction and fantasy minds in the business leading discussions!

Should be great fun!
