We tried a few times to do a proper podcast interview, but the tech deities weren’t too happy about that. I still wanted you to hear what Phoebe had to say, so we decided to do a written interview instead. Hopefully, you won’t be too disappointed.

KS Augustin: You have received great reviews for your novel Jemma7729. NeoOpsis magazine said it “beats the crap out of 75% of the stuff on the shelves” and is a “good solid action adventure novel”. And it was nominated “Best SF Novel” on the annual Preditors and Editors poll. Would you care to tell us how the novelcame about?

Phoebe Wray: How it came about? It was a grumbling rumbling thing in my heart and brain because I was so angry when President Bush invaded Iraq. I found myself back at vigils and demonstrations again, as I had been in the sixties, holding a candle against the dark. I had a “what if…” moment, thinking What If there were a government that ruled by fear and intimidation and was so tyrannical that it lumped all crimes and misdemeanors, no matter how big or small, into one category: Inappropriate Behavior. That was the original title of the book. It started as a short story and wouldn’t stay short. Of course it was years in the making, so my naked rage got some clothes on and made more sense.

Jemma actually was a Top Ten Finisher in the Preditors&Editors Readers Poll. A respectable #9! I was really pleased with that.

KSA: Before you became a writer, you were lots of interesting things. Including a stand-up comic! What was that like?

PW:Great when they laughed. Horrid when they didn’t. I wrote my own material, so there was no one to blame but myself if I bombed. That was actually great fun. I wasn’t a one-liner comic, like a lot are now. I did little sketches, as different characters. I had a whole trunk full of crazy people — a female wrestler, for instance, talking about her career and her techniques. That’s sort of funny from the get-go because I’m 5’2” and weigh 110 pounds. She was very earnest, that wrestler. Because I was shape-shifting, so to speak, it was a natural step to take acting lessons and work in legitimate theatre. I like it better than stand-up.

KSA: You began writing non-fiction before starting on fiction. Is the process involved different for you? Which do you prefer, if you can stand to make a choice? :)

PW:It’s not really different, because everything starts with an idea. You have to write a truth in both. I absolutely love getting into my character’s heads. But I also like to research, like to learn things. Back in my starving artist days I learned a great lesson: when everything is absolutely awful and you think you’ll never get a job or sell a word — learn something! Knitting, bocci ball, how to solder. It doesn’t matter what it is. It takes your mind totally off the troubles and releases creative energy. One summer I researched the crusades. Another time I studied French cooking. And yes, I learned to solder. It’s a hobby — I make goofy little sculptures out of keys… you know those keys you can’t remember what they open? Everyone has them. My friends save them for me.

KSA: The thread of teaching, of education, seems to run through all your work, from the nonprofit you set up, to various nonfiction essays, even to the work you currently do at the Boston Conservatory. You could even say that Jemma7729 is educational. Would you agree?

PW: Is Jemma educational? I dunno. What does it teach? Don’t be afraid. Stand up for what you believe in. It says those things. I believe those things.

The nonprofit was specifically educational: it was about conservation of endangered species and marine mammals, with plenty of spill over into environmental ethics and sharing the planet. I wrote all of our material: teaching guides, a multi-media stage play that was performed in schools and town halls, informational brochures and fact sheets on the issues. I loved doing that.

I teach history of the theatre and cultural history at The Boston Conservatory. I love teaching both. I have a passion for history. It’s mostly what I read.

KSA: Has this trend towards education been a conscious choice on your part?

I suppose so, but it’s organic. I never aspired to be a teacher, except in the mentoring way that is traditional in the arts. You help each other.

KSA: What have you been working on since Jemma7729? Is there a hankering to go back to that universe, or have you said what you needed to say about that vision of a future society?

PW: Oh yeah … more than a hankering. There is a sequel to Jemma’s saga. I’m not quite finished with her dystopia, although the second book is different. Jemma7729 is written as a first person narrative. The sequel, JA2 is in god voice.

And I have four other novels on my desktop. There’s a fantasy trilogy I’ve been working on for a long time. It’s not so-called “high” fantasy — no elves, wizards or warlocks, which I find boring. It’s set late Bronze Age in very high mountains. Unlike Jemma, this work is set in a kind of utopia with a very dark heart. I have a regular old fashioned stalker novel that’s in its last rewrite. And I keep writing short stories.

KSA: Do you own an ebook reader?

PW: I don’t own one. But probably will. I like holding a book. I like the smell of new books. I’m not snobby about it, just haven’t gotten around to it.

KSA: You live in Massachusetts. What do you see when you look out your window?

PW: The main street of my little town (pop.7000) runs past my house, but I’m on the outskirts, with a huge protected wetland 500 yards from my back door (I can’t see it at the moment). Right now I’m in my study, desk beside a window, and because it’s winter, I can see across the street. There’s a huge granite outcrop that makes a moderate cliff, with trees on the top. There’s a red maple tree in my front yard that I planted as a spindly twig in 1976. It’s now taller than my two-storey house. Normally, I can’t see across the street because of its marvelous foliage. It turns blazing scarlet in the fall. What I also see today are the drifts of snow from the 12 inches of white stuff we got yesterday.

KSA: What’s next for Phoebe Wray? What are you working on?

PW: I hope what’s next is the sequel to Jemma. I’m still promoting the first book, and have added another one to my knapsack, I have a maniacal spec-fic story called “Names” in “Backless, Strapless, and Slit to the Throat: A Femme Fatale Anthology.” Betty Dobson edited it for InkSpotter Publishing. It’s an eclectic collection — something for everyone.

I have three stories currently under submission. When I’m in the right mood, I’m still working on a two act comedy-mystery play. It’s fun to write.

Oddly, most of my work has been published outside of the USA. As an eleventh generation American, I find that rather strange, it can’t be something generic, can it?. Both Jemma7729 and the anthology are from Canadian publishers, and I’ve sold stories to Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine (Australia) and Farthing (UK).

KSA: If readers and listeners want to find out more about you, where can they go? Do you blog? Do you have any other online presences?

PW:I’m an indifferent blogger, although my friends tell me it’s important for writers to blog. But blogging is writing — and I’d rather be in one of my fictional universes if I’m going to spend the time. But I do have a blog on LiveJournal and I’m on Facebook. Maybe I’ll do better in future.

Thanks, Kaz!
