Reminder: I'll be giving my live online lecture “The Jedi, the Cowboy, and… Thomas Edison?: Pulp Science Fiction and Star Wars” for the Mythgard Academy Guest Lecture Series on Saturday, Aug. 15 at 3:00 pm ET. Everyone is welcome! There is no cost. Save your virtual seat by registering for the talk here. The Guest Lecture Series site has more information on the lecture here.



If you missed David Brin's wonderful talk and Q&A session ("Can Science Fiction Change the World?"), have no fear! It's now online for free access both as a video and as audio only. Enjoy!

I signed up for the lecture and am so looking forward to it. Star Wars has always been more pulp science fiction than science fiction, or rather, perhaps, fantasy, so I imagine you'll get quite a bit of feedback.

Oh, thank you so much! :) I'm so excited that you'll be there. Thanks for the encouraging words!

It was a fascinating lecture, I was gripped for the hour and a half. With a bit more understanding of the influence, I can't wait to re-watch Star Wars again.
