Author Interview: Kaylea Hascall Champion
Kaylea's contribution to the summer issue is a story about first contact and hubris called "KuiperGate".
Q: What's the best thing you've read recently?
A: I really enjoyed Ines of My Soul by Isabel Allende; it changed the way I look at colonial history.
Q: What motivates you to write science fiction or horror?
A: I am fundamentally motivated by ideas—speculative fiction in all its forms provides a terrific opportunity to explore and to question.
Q: What do you hope the future will be like?
A: I could get preachy or sappy about it all, but it comes down to this: I hope that the future is messy, but with clean public bathrooms.
Q: What's lurking under your bed?
A: Four half-finished novels....and they're getting hungry!
Q: Do you have any hobbies or interests outside of writing and sf/horror?
A: Most weekends will find me obsessively doing one of the following: playing computer games, digging in my chaotic garden, entertaining my dogs, or sewing fabulous new clothes for myself and others.
Q: Do you have a website you'd like our readers to see?
A: Sure, folks can go to http://www.kaylea.net.
