I’m on a much-awaited trip to the US (and first I’m on a much-awaited trip to the US (and first time in NYC) and saw a young man on the subway reading a paperback copy of Heretics of Dune. What a delight! 
Apparently he was so absorbed he almost missed his stop too. 😄
My chapter on women in Dune has been published in My chapter on women in Dune has been published in the reference work The Routledge Companion to Gender and Science Fiction. It was a challenge to write such a brief essay on one of my fav topics, but I got there in the end.

My next project is a little different - it’s tar My next project is a little different - it’s targeted toward people who don't ‘get’ science fiction, feel put off by the geeky stereotypes, etc. (so probably doesn't apply to most of you reading this)

For years people have told me they don't like it...but also have never tried it! It’s hard to recommend something since there is such a wide range of science fiction content and personal taste. 

But what I can do is demystify it as a genre. Hopefully this will broaden some people's understanding and perhaps pique their curiosity enough to take a next step.

Stay tuned!
