''I think of ''The Dog Stars'' as literary fiction, straight up, but it was one of six finalists for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, which shocked me, since it's about a guy surviving with his old dog and an antique Cessna. But. I guess it's sci fi if they say it is. Speculative fiction might be more accurate. In my novel, climate change has killed a lot of the forests in Colorado, the creeks are warming and the trout are gone, and drought is a major threat. These things have already begun to happen here. Cli fi is a new term to me, but if the shoe fits I'm glad to wear it.''
