![]() ![]() ![]() Jonathan Strahan, who was editing the anthology, asked for short fiction that was set in the solar system in the future but no cheating with faster than light or anything like that. Would you be able to tell us a bit about it? Let’s start off by talking about your Hugo award-winning short story The Girl-Thing Who Went Out For Sushi. ![]() Pat Cadigan was at SFX Book Con 2 in Foyles, London last month, and was kind enough to speak with The Fantasy Hive there. She has also written a number of tie-in novelisations, the most recent being Harley Quinn: Mad Love for Titan books with original Harley Quinn creator Paul Dini. More recently her short story The Girl-Thing Who Went Out For Sushi (2012) is an innovative work about body modification in astronauts that originally featured in Solaris’s hard science fiction anthology Engineering The Future and won the Hugo Award for best novelette. Tea From An Empty Cup (1998) and Dervish Is Digital (2000) feature noir detective Dore Konstantin investigating crimes in virtual reality. Her short story Rock On was featured in Bruce Sterling’s movement-defining Mirrorshades anthology (1986), and her novels Synners (1991) and Fools (1992) remain high watermarks for the genre. Pat Cadigan is the undisputed Queen of Cyberpunk. ![]()
