  • Abstract: This article presents an interview with Kate Orman, one of Australia's most prolific SF writers and author of Dr Who novels. The interview is wide ranging and informative, providing a very interesting insight into the intellectual work informing the creation and production of the cult Dr Who television series tie-in novels. As the author's interview reveals, Orman uses these genre novels to explore a variety of issues, from ethics and environmentalism to stereotypes and cross-cultural communication. The interview also touches on such topics as the everyday, cultural literacy, notions of authorship, consumer-producer relations, as well as fandom
