Though trained as an actor in university, Scott left stage and screen behind to become a broadcaster and finally pursued his lifelong desire to be a science fiction writer. Since then, he’s taken readers to strange places, including the human bloodstream in his SF novel debut, The Primus Labyrinth, a science fiction thriller that reviewers compare to the works of Michael Crichton. His novel Naïda chronicles a reluctant hero with an alien being living inside him. The Dispossession of Dylan Knox describes the trials of three people thrown out of their own time and sharing a single body. And his newest SF thriller, Augment Nation, explores the bright promise and disturbing perils of computerized brain augmentation. Scott believes science fiction should explore compelling themes, essential issues, and memorable characters. His short novel has been published in numerous American magazines and anthologies, including On Spec magazine’s 25th Anniversary anthology Casserole Diplomacy, and Tesseracts 16: Parnassus Unbound.A committed community leader, Scott served many terms (often as chairman) on local boards of the United Way, Canadian Red Cross, CNIB, Easter Seals, and more, as well as being a founder of the local literary festival and a long-time board member of the Canadian Authors Association. He’s hosted local telethons and other televised events many times. He still hosts webinars for the CAA and SF Canad and provides freelance voice services (especially audiobook narration) from his home studio.His favourite distractions from writing include scuba diving and collector cars. He lives with his wife on a private island in Northern Ontario.http://www.scottoverton.ca/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/misslizsteatimes/messageBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/teatime-with-miss-liz--5511005/support.
