Join award-winning writer Lee Murray for lunch <em>and</em> dinner as we discuss how she crafted her first short story collection, the importance of mentoring our next generation of genre writers, why we're unlikely to ever go spelunking together, whether she prefers her zombies fast or slow, the unique awards club of which we're both members, the way her use of New Zealand culture might be perceived differently by readers in and out of her country, the difficulties some seem to have with stories written in the present tense, the thrill of being the first New Zealander to appear in <em>Weird Tales</em> magazine, how the experiences of reading <em>The Hobbit</em> and <em>The Lord of the Rings</em> aloud differ, and much more.
