Flowering Evil by Margaret St. Clair - Sci Fi Short Stories Audiobook

Like all her other plants from far-off worlds, Aunt Amy hoped the Venusian Rambler would win a prize. It hoped so too. Flowering Evil by Margaret St. Clair, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode. American fantasy and science fiction writer Margaret St. Clair makes her debut on the podcast today. She was born in Hutchinson Kansas in 1911. Her father, US Representative George Neeley died when she was 7, but left her and her mother well provided for. A decade later she and her mother moved to California and after graduating from the University of California she married writer Eric St. Clair. She first tried her hand at detective and mystery stories before finding her passion writing fantasy and science fiction. Almost all of her more than 120 short stories appeared in pulp magazines in the 1940s and 1950s. Back in the summer of 1950 if you had 20 cents you could have gotten your hands on today’s story, which appeared in Planet Stories magazine. Let’s head over to page 30 for, Flowering Evil by Margaret St. Clair… Why did I narrate Flowering Evil? One word, three letters, one syllable, fun! There are some authors that write stories that are easy to narrate and when you find one, you narrate it. I also chose to share this story because I have been searching for more stories written by women. There are more on the way.
