At a writing conference I've managed to snag a 15 minute appointment with a publisher (who published Terry Pratchett, my favourite author). I'm a debut fantasy novelist. She will have received a cover letter, one line story summary, one page story synopsis and the first 30 pages of one of my stories. Some background: - I'm a sufferer of social anxiety so being prepared is my only defense. - I'm not confident about my work being 'snapped up' so I don't want to waste our time. I've found a few snippets suggesting what questions an author might be asked, [these for example](http://ideaplatforms.com/blog/five-questions-publisher-will-ask-prospective-author) but none from the other way around. What questions should I ask the publisher in order to make the most of this opportunity?
