S3 Ep57: Non-book recommendations and Melissa Ferguson on science fiction and writing about the future

The hosts are giving recommendations and there's one rule: nothing book-related.     Then Katherine speaks to Melissa Ferguson, author of The Shining Wall about science fiction and the challenges of writing the future.     We know you'll understand that this episode has a different quality of audio than you are used to from us. Eventually we'll get back to studio sound, but until then forgive us the odd crackle!   Check out show notes for this episode on our website www.thefirsttimepodcast.com or get in touch via Twitter or Instagram @thefirsttimepod.   Don't forget you can support us and the making of Season Three via our Patreon page https://www.patreon.com/user/overview?u=14470635!
