A Famous Influencer Interviews The Author. (Only slightly edited…) → ChatGPT Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to our literary radio show! Today, we have the pleasure of hosting the talented author Alastair Gordon, creator of the enchanting "Invasion of The Lovebirds." Now, let's dive right in. Alastair, your novel promises a delightful mix of romance, artificial intelligence, and unexpected twists. Could you start by sharing what inspired you to weave such a unique tapestry of themes and settings into this story?
Yep, I'm big on those gals ... all really talented, and sadly under-appreciated as "serious" writers, perhaps because of both gender and their concern to entertain and charm rather than simply aiming for dour and serious.
Hah! Definitely better than mine. Obvously the interview is a conceit, especailly given my novel involves an AI, but I love playing with old Chatty and seeing what comes out. I just fed it my "blurb", told it to be a radio intervier and ask me 10 questions... and there you go.
Wow! That’s the trifecta: Heyer, Gabaldon and Willis!!

Have you read Lois McMaster Bujold by any chance?
No, but just checking out her Wikipedia entry it sounds like I should! Thanks for the lead.
Absolutely. One of her Vorkosigan novels is an homage to Heyer, but you need to read the ones leading up to it.
Oh darn, I thought it was going to be ELIZA who interviewed you! I guess Chat GPT has better grammar...
