SFWA Grand Master Connie Willis is one of the most decorated science fiction authors of all time, having won a combined 27 Hugo, Nebula and Locus awards over the past 40 years. Her recipe for success is equally unparalleled, using Hollywood screwball comedies from the 1930s and 40s as the structural template for many of her science fiction stories and novels.
She's one of my favorite authors, and I hope this overview of her novels and short fiction inspires you to give her works a try.
