When I first started coming to conventions, in the seventies, I could walk into a room and know that everyone there had read the same 200 books. I don't get that feeling anymore, w ith fandom having splintered into media fandom and vampire fandom and online fandom, etc. We've sacrified a kind of coherence for size. I'm s till fond of. That's the joy of constructing a Utopia.
People always have good reasons for hating it and loving it.
I don't want to go into all the weird publishing decisions at this point, but they're really complex. I live in New Mexico, on a farm. WJW thanks for talking with me. Its been great. Thanks for coming.
