I am delighted to be represented by Sara and feel very confident that she is the right agent for me! We share an interest in what might be called "the liminal" - often taken to mean the slightly uncanny or spooky. I think "liminal" (from the Latin "limen", meaning threshold) can be stretched to cover any place or circumstance where worlds meet, whether that is a physical place, a culture, a point of view, or - of course - the uncanny.
So Aerth and The Wilder Path can both be seen as liminal, in this bigger and wider sense, where worlds collide, or where people step over a barrier or threshold from one world to another, whether that's physical, psychological, emotional, or something entirely different.
I explore this sense of the edge of things in short stories too, as in my very short fiction "me and the foxes battle it out along the railway line". Thresholds are, after all, where the most interesting things may happen...
