On the Origin of Debatable Space

One of the projects I’m proudest of is my free adaptation of Edmund Spenser’s The Faerie Queene for BBC Radio 4 (to read a script, click here.)

I was asked in an interview recently about how the idea of Debatable Space came about, and suddenly I remembered how much I had been influenced by the heightened, exaggerative style of this radio play.  The style came first, oddly enough, then the story followed.

For more on this, you can see an interview I did for Sci Fi Wire.
