SUMMARY:Is It The Future Yet?
DESCRIPTION:Science fiction is about the future\, but the people writing it are living now\, and so are their audiences. How to science fiction writers pick and choose what things about the current world echo into the worlds they create\, and which science/technology/social bits to make up. How do they hit the moving target of making a world futuristic enough for the genre\, and still relatable to people who they want to buy books? And when has the real world surprised us by being more “futuristic” than science fiction prepared us for?
