This week we are so excited to interview Ken Liu! All of his writing and translation work is excellent, but if you haven't read his short story collection The Paper Menagerie we recommend you start there, it's full of incredibly memorable stories.

We talked with Ken about:

Growing up in both China and America
Robo-Ken - the neural network he built to help write a story
The singularity and uploading your consciousness
His background as a programmer and lawyer
The importance of family in his stories
The meaning of silkpunk and his series The Dandelion Dynasty

We'll be releasing more bonus content from the Hugo Awards on YouTube over the next week - check those out on our YouTube channel if you haven't already subscribed!

Next episode we'll be discussing Peter Watt's Blindsight - look forward to talking with y'all then. Happy reading everybody!
