Yeah actually, a lot of your characters seem to crises of faith, particularly Sazed in the Hero of Ages where he essentially questions all his- everything he’s come to believe. Have you ever experienced any conflicts with your own religious faith about including such characters in your books?
That’s also a good question I would- Conflicts is perhaps the wrong way to put it in that I believe strongly in the precepts of people like Socrates in that the unexamined life is not worth living and I find that if I’m interested in something I should question it, I should examine it from as many directions as I can.
I tend to do that in my fiction it’s the way I express myself Rather than writing a journal, I write stories that explore what I’m working on, myself, what I’m interested in and I find it vital that I attack them from lots of different directions not just the way I am, but the way I see other people exploring the same problems, the same questions.
It’s just - it’s valuable to me as a writer and as a person that I explore these things in depth, so I’ve never seen conflict but I certainly have expressed my own questions and examinations through characters as they have reached similar moments in their lives.
