- 4 years ago
Andrew Eborn is joined by Karen Lanning, scientist and writer, to talk about life lessons, armadillos, rabbits, NASA, HG Wells, Climate Change, Politics, social commentary, near future, the writing process, success, Asimov, Arthur C Clarke , near future, horses, cowboys, Jon D' Amore & whatever.
Born in Texas in 1957, she grew up near Houston in the small town of Friendswood, laced with white oyster shell roads and open fields dotted with huge live oaks—riding horses rather than bikes. But nearby, NASA’s space program shepherded thoughts of astrophysics into her head.
Lanning received a bachelor’s degree in Physics in 1979 from Stephen F. Austin St. University in Nacogdoches, TX and a MBA in 1986 from the University of Houston. In her geophysics career, science met art—imaging landscapes beneath the surface of the earth. Lanning owned and directed an art gallery in Houston, fascinated with curating thought-provoking shows with new and proven artists.
A life-long fan of science fiction, Lanning has always been intrigued by the multi-dimensions of the genre, allowing the author to explore society, humanity, and our future—bringing the reader along for the ride. To reveal the inner workings of some of the best sci-fi authors in the business, she’s published a series of sci-fi author interviews in FUTURISM magazine, In the Author’s Universe: Sci-Fi Authors from a Writer’s Point of View, including authors Hugh Howey, Margaret Atwood, Andy Weir, and Cixin Liu.
Lanning currently lives in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia with her family.

Andrew Eborn's interview technique.. similar to Michael Parkinson. It was a treat to be interviewed by Andrew Eborn. Better than going to a fun Show-Biz party. So good at his job Exudes warmth but a little dangerous in case he leads you on to indiscretions. He gives you the feeling "just between you and me," without actually saying it. In this way, he knows there is something behind what you are saying even when you manage to shut up about it.
As a lawyer, he knows what questions to ask. As a showbiz personality, he understands that flattery can get someone nearly everywhere.
He makes the event into a party.It is a joyful experience.Thank you, Andrew, for inviting me to your party. Xx Aline Waites,
