Living in the Future
Posted by Jaine Fenn on 10 August 2011 3
Back in my youth, I read a lot of cyberpunk. Arguably too much, but I was at an impressionable age and got taken in by all the glitz and edginess. Technology had never been so sexy: urban decay had never been so fascinating. A lot of that future has come true. Cyberspace is ubiquitous, even […]
Receding goals

We writers are odd coves. I’m within a few thousand words of the end of the first draft of Queen of Nowhere, and I don’t have anything else I have to do today, but I’ve spent the last hour or so cleaning the house (which, admittedly, needs it) and carrying on the activity known around […]

Adverse Growing Conditions

In a recent post on his blog, Alistair Reynolds quoted yours truly as being the only female British SF writer with an ongoing book contract. I suspect his criteria were very strict – there are many excellent female writers in the wider genre active in this country, just not native Brits writing SF (as opposed […]
Save the date(s)
Posted by Jaine Fenn on 3 July 2011 0
I’ve been asked about the launch/signing party for Bringer of Light; the book is out on August 18th, so I’m hoping to celebrate with everyone on Saturday the 20th. However, I’m still finalising the venue: it will be somewhere in Hampshire, but for details, watch this space. Another date of note: the paperback of Guardians […]
