William Meikle’s Bizarre Science Fiction

The primary science fiction I ever encountered was Fireball XL5, one of many early Gerry Anderson productions. I used to be solely about 4 years previous, however I used to be hooked instantly on spaceships and journey within the stars.

I grew up throughout the thrilling a part of the house race, staying up nights to look at space-walks then moon missions, eyes huge in surprise as Armstrong made his small step. On the identical time Gerry Anderson had continued to thrill me, with Stingray, Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet. The Individuals joined in, with Misplaced in Area then, as shade TV reached Scotland, Star Trek hit me full between the eyes.

Because the ’60s drew to an in depth, Marvel began to take over my studying habits extra, and I made forays into studying novels; Clarke and Asimov at first, and a lot of the Golden-Age works. By the early Seventies I had graduated to the so-called New Wave, Moorcock, Ellison, Delaney and Zelazny dominating my studying, they usually led me on to studying, then writing horror.

Those that know me know that I used to be as soon as, nearly, a scientist. Even from an early age it was what I needed to do. Really, I needed to be a spaceman ( the quickest man alive ), however after I began into the finding out within the ’70s, I discovered myself drawn in direction of biology and chemistry greater than to maths and physics. I’ve retained a life-long love of all issues pertaining to outer house, however when it got here to time to decide on a path past faculty, I went with the Organic Sciences and graduated in Botany from Glasgow College, and even made a stab at some actual science for a few years earlier than I used to be caught within the IT lure within the early ’80s. And there it ended.

In 2007 I escaped the world of company IT, got here to Newfoundland, and science crept in once more, this time in my writing. Scientists started to point out up within the likes of THE CREEPING KELP, NIGHT OF THE WENDIGO, THE DUNFIELD TERROR, FUNGOID and my Professor Challenger pastiches and since then they’ve been getting even louder nonetheless. In these works you’ll discover mad scientists, unhealthy scientists, and mad, unhealthy scientists. That is who I’m. That is what I do.
