And we love getting your emails, we received this from Noel in Edmonton AB Canada… “Thanks for the terrific podcast. I’m new to the show and am loving both the choice of stories and the narration. I also enjoy the introductory comments, which add colour to each episode.
When I hear you talk about lost or forgotten authors it makes me think of James White, who wrote some of my favourite sci-fi short stories ever. He was, I believe, a British sci-fi writer in the 1960’s. I have never heard anything of his on audio.
Keep up the great work!” Thanks Noel, we’re looking for James White stories that we can add to the podcast thanks to you.
Winston Marks wrote a couple of short stories in the early 1940s and then disappeared for more than a decade. He showed up on the sci-fi scene again in 1953 when magazines published 4 of his short stories include The Water Eater.
If Winston Marks sounds familiar it’s possibly because we’ve featured him twice before. You may remember “Never Gut-shoot A Wampus” and “So They Baked A Cake”.
From the old, yellowed pages of Galaxy Science Fiction in June 1953 our story can be found on page 56. The Water Eater by Winston Marks…
