If all Sci-Fi writers weren't actually from earth, but another planet, what would the planet be called?
The Planet YeahButWhatIf?
You're the first person to achieve faster than light travel, where did you go and how did you do it?
A long time ago in a galaxy far far away, with great difficulty and probably by listening to Arthur C Clarke.
If you were to get control of some sort of time travel device, where would you go?
To Mr Clarke’s house to show him =] Perhaps I already have, and that’s why he wrote such great stories.
What fictional Sci-Fi universe is your favourite?
I love dystopian and alternate history type stories. One of my favourites is Lucifer’s Hammer by Larry Niven. The asteroid hits about a third of the way through the book, the rest is what happens next. Loved it. The World War books by Harry Turtledove are also superbly done. I tend to prefer SF that is set relatively close to home I guess.
If you suddenly got superpowers what would they be and what would you use them for?
I’d love to be able to grow stuff, really quickly. Rainforest gone – zap: there you go, have a new one. Starving children – zap: have a field of corn. I like feeding people and seeing people enjoy food.
