In this episode we steal Alex from Galactic Suburbia and get her to interview the wonderful Cat Sparks, award winning writer and fiction editor at Australia's premier science magazine - Cosmos. They discuss Cat's early career as a photographer of rock star hopefuls and politicians, before moving on to talking about her recent collection put out by Ticonderoga. They also cover her involvement in Australian speculative fiction as a small press publisher, writer and editor. Of particular interest will be her bar panel discussion on the structure of novels using table condiments and cutlery.
[Note: We apoligise for the feedback echo experienced in the first couple of questions Alex asks]
