- Happy Birthday, C.S. Lewis: Remembering His Science Fiction
Most readers remember C.S. Lewis for The Chronicles of Narnia. I remember him for his science fiction. On his birthday, I’m looking back at the Space Trilogy and the remarkable way Lewis used speculative fiction not to predict the future, but to challenge how we see ourselves—and humanity’s place in the universe. - Why Hardboiled Isn’t Noir
I finished S.J. Morden’s One Way and immediately bought the sequel—not because I liked the protagonist, but because I had to know what happened next. It also reminded me that hardboiled and noir aren’t the same thing, and why that distinction explains Ptolemy Lane far better than I ever realized while writing him. - We’re Already Building Our Exoselves
Kevin Kelly’s latest essay introduced me to a concept I hadn’t quite considered before: the “exoself.” Not a humanoid robot, but an AI that becomes an extension of our own minds through memory, context, and continuity. The more I thought about it, the more I realized we may already be taking the first steps toward that future—one useful conversation at a time. - Canada Day and Canadian Science Fiction
Canada Day always reminds me how many of my favourite science fiction writers turn out to be Canadian. From celebrated authors to passionate fandom and the Aurora Awards, Canada has quietly made an outsized contribution to speculative fiction—and it’s a legacy I’m proud to be part of. - Ridley Scott, The Dog Stars, and a Few Lingering Burn Scars
Ridley Scott is one of those directors whose films automatically move to the top of my watch list. But after the disappointment of Gladiator II, I’m approaching his return to science fiction with a little more caution than usual. Based on the trailer for The Dog Stars, though, there are plenty of reasons for optimism—from its apparent focus on human relationships to Scott’s long history of creating unforgettable science fiction worlds.
