Writer, reader, thinker
Some of you may remember that Dr Thea Boshoff wrote her PhD thesis about my Sentients of Orion series. Her thesis is entitled:
Crafting positions: representations of intimacy and gender in The Sentients of Orion.
Well, Thea just contacted me to say that she’ll be presenting a paper called *The Aliens of Orion* at a conference in Lisbon. The main theme of the conference is what it means to be human. Thea’s paper shows how the progression in my depiction of aliens reflects a progression in the nature of humanity.
Here is the poster from the conference. Giant lobsters. What is not to love?
Wish I could be there!
