I’ve Been Snapshot! #scifi #fantasy #books @AustSFSnapshot

imageThe Australian speculative fiction snapshot series celebrates the breadth and depth of Australia’s speculative fiction scene by interviewing prominent writers, editors and booksellers in the industry. I was first interviewed for the series in 2012 (by David McDonald), then in 2014 (by Stephanie Gunn) and it’s an honour to be included again. This time, the lovely Greg Chapman has asked me five cunning questions:

  1. What are you working on right now? Anything exciting?
  2. You’ve got a whole bunch of novels listed as “available soon” on your website. What can you tell me about them? When will they be made flesh? Did you write them all back-to-back?
  3. You seem to dabble within the many sub-genres of speculative fiction, but which area inspires you the most and why?
  4. What Australian work have you loved recently?
  5. Which author (living or dead) would you most like to sit next to on a long plane trip? Why?

To see what I had to say, just pop over to the official snapshot blog here. Then browse around the site to discover more about speculative fiction in Australia today! Follow @AustSFsnapshot on Twitter or ‘Australian Spec Fic Snapshot’ on Facebook for updates 🙂
