After a month away. We’re back and we get the ball rolling with an epic interview with Science Fiction novelist Ada Hoffman.

During this chat. The writer gives us the lowdown on how she got into writing and her personal journey to becoming a published Science Fiction writer. Her debut novel ‘The Outside’ wowed readers when it was released back in 2018 and it looks very much like that book’s sequel The Fallen is going to do very much the same.

Ada talks us through some of the characters and storylines of the book to give those that haven’t checked the books out yet a small taste of what they can expect. She also talks about how her decision to make her main character an Autistic scientist surprised her in a few ways and chats a little bit about her creative process as a writer saying that she usually has the beginning, middle, and end of her books figured out in advance of writing the story.

Being that a few of us here at SciFiPulse Radio is on the Autism Spectrum we also asked Ada her thoughts on representation in the publishing industry as well as representation in film and television. And Ada also talked about some of the ways in which she tries to encourage writers with autism by reviewing their stories on her website.

So to hear all of what was said. Tune in for this epic new episode of SciFiPulse Radio.
