Seat 2 (out of 4) in a one-hour virtual author kaffeeklatsch via Zoom with Nisi Shawl, best known for fiction dealing with gender, race, and colonialism, including the 2016 Nebula finalist novel Everfair, an alternate history of the Congo.
They’re the coauthor of Writing the Other: A Practical Approach, a cofounder of the Carl Brandon Society, and they’ve served on Clarion West’s board of directors for decades. Shawl edited and co-edited Strange Matings: Science Fiction, Feminism, African American Voices, and Octavia E. Butler; and New Suns: Speculative Fiction by People of Color.

A new story collection, Fruiting Bodies, is forthcoming this October from Aqueduct Press. A Middle Grade novel, Speculation, is forthcoming in January 2023 from Lee & Low.
