Megan: I love that you’ve set your series in Australia. My eldest daughter is to blame for inspiring me to give that a go.
Not once did I ever think I’d end up writing. They had a pretty good collection of books for me to lose myself in. My dad and brother were great role models for me too. Megan: When did you discover that you were a writer of fiction? And what drew you to science fiction and fantasy in particular?Ĭarolyn: I’ve been obsessed with reading speculative fiction ever since Elyne Mitchell led me to it using books about horses (sneaky). My passion is simply that those stories are there for us to explore and perhaps even learn from.Īs for my experience with finance, I guess it helps me to avoid the cliché of the starving artist! More or less…
Let me be clear – I have no definitive answers as to how much of early Genesis is poetry or metaphor (or a history of the planet told in a format that could be easily passed down as spoken story from one generation to the next), and how much is literal. Given that evolutionary ecology was one of my favourite subjects, perhaps it was inevitable that my curiosity about the Garden of Eden went a little too deep! How have these helped you in writing science fiction and fantasy?Ĭarolyn: I studied science because it interests me, not because I had any particular career goal in mind. You then found work in the finance industry. You completed a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne and then came to the awkward realisation that you didn’t want to do research in a lab for the rest of your life. Today, I welcome Science fiction and fantasy author Carolyn Denman to the blog and we're chatting about her exciting and unique Sentinels series.
