Had an interesting discussion today, and I learned something. A female writer and I were discussing very early Sci Fi. I had brought up the usual suspects, Jules Verne, HG Wells, Lovecraft, and Burroughs, and she said, You dont count Mary Shelly? I answered (obviously) that Shelly was a Horror pioneer, but not Sci Fi. She said So..... You dont count a deranged scientist in a lab building a robot to be Sci Fi? So, yeah, Science Fiction was invented by Mary Shelly.
