YOU NEVER HEARD OF HER ― BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE! Her name is Frances Deegan. She wrote 21 stories and 35 articles under her own name for the science fiction pulps between 1944 and 1952, when few other women were selling to them at all. Yet you won't find her listed in any book about science fiction. Not The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, A Reader's Guide to Science Fiction, Pamela Sergeant's Women of Wonder, Roger C. Schlobin's comprehensive listing of women science fiction authors, Urania's Daughters, Alexei and Cory Panshin's The World Beyond the Hill, or David Hartwell's Dark Descent. In fact, in the years since her death, Frances Deegan has become the forgotten woman of the golden age of pulp science fiction, and none of her stories have ever been reprinted. The only place you will find Frances Deegan's name is buried among the plethora of male authors in the table-of-contents listings for old sf magazines. Yet at a time when only a handful of women were writing or reading science fiction, Frances Deegan was one of the field's most popular authors, if the letter columns of the period are to be believed. And that popularity was deserved, as this first-ever collection of her stories shows. And what stories they are! Set against backgrounds that are often rustic ("The Radiant Rock"), peopled with characters who are decidedly not urban ("The Wizard of Blue Gap"), and frequently humorous, with comic touches in even the most straightforward scientific puzzle story ("The Third Bolt"), they blazed new trails for science fiction when first written and still stand out as vigorous, idiosyncratic work even today, a half century after they were written. It is hoped that this collection will introduce the work of this forgotten woman to new generations and help, in some measure, to rescue the name and reputation of Frances Deegan from obscurity. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Coming up… Mothering Sunday Special! (March 30 in the UK): Two stories of maternal angst. Main Fiction 1: “Pause Time” by Mary Soon Lee 03:40 Twenty minutes into the transatlantic flight, Connor started wailing. Pauline cradled him in her arms. Then she rocked him, she offered him her breast, she sang to him; Connor continued to cry. The man sitting on her right gave her a thin smile. “Did you forget the baby’s pauser code?” “No,” Pauline mumbled, wishing she could sink through the floor into the cargo hold. “I’ve never used the pauser.” In 1992 Mary started writing and submitting short stories, mainly in the science fiction and fantasy genres. She has had over seventy stories published, including appearances in The Year’s Best SF #4 and #5, edited by David Hartwell; her story “Cause and Consequence” (Interzone #136, October 1998) won first place in...

Welcome to Episode 88 of Llght On Light Through. I've just finished writing the concluding chapter of Unburning Alexandria - sequel to The Plot to Save Socrates - which will be published on Kindle, iTunes, etc as an ebook by JoSara MeDia in a few days. As a little appetizer, I thought you might enjoy this brief reading I did from Unburning Alexandria at Robin's Books (the famous book store which closed in 2012) in Philadelphia, as part of Oz Fontecchio's Philadelphia Fantastic series. The reading comes from the beginning of the novel, which was published in November 2008 in Analog Magazine as a novelette, and which is in the 2012 ebook of The Plot to Save Socrates. (The ebook of Unburning Alexandria picks up the narrative right after.) Following the reading, I talk to Oz Fontecchio about time travel, and take questions from audience, including one from Gerry Elman. Thanks to Larry Robin, Ray Garman, Oz Fontecchio, Gerry Elman, Trevor Quachri, and Chuck Sterin, who in one way or another helped with this video, and to David Hartwell and Stan Schmidt, who helped with the print publications of The Plot to Save Socrates and Unburning Alexandria.

I'm off for yet another trip, so I'm posting this episode early (yay!) but I'll probably be late on the next (boo!). In any event, here is Part Three (the last part!) of a new (old) story, "The Edge of Nowhere" which was first published in Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine in June, 2005. It was subsequently reprinted in the YEAR'S BEST SCIENCE FICTION #11, edited by David Hartwell and Kathryn Cramer from Harper/Eos and SCIENCE FICTION: THE BEST OF THE YEAR, edited by Rich Horton from PrimeBooks, so it must have had something going for it!
