    I think the mere thought of Neil Gaiman porn has had a profound effect on my personality and soul. I'm not sure if I am now a man for the better.

    Depends. Writing, or performing?

    Cause, you know, if both genres are taking a hit...

    McAuley could just delve a little deeper into the creepy relationship between Sri Hong-Owena and her son in "The Quiet War." I bet there are several disturbing stories there that somebody would pay for.

    Not me though.

    I think a lot of authors will fish out the young adult manuscript most writers I know have stashed under their beds. Publishers are always looking for the next Harry Potter knock-off.

    Why does everyone act like science fiction is on death's doorstep? So, the big publishers fall... so what? There are plenty of small publishers out there (I should know, I'm one of them), still publishing science fiction. If the big magazines go away, there will always been smaller ones to go to. The Internet makes it possible to disseminate stories to the far corners of the Earth, without a publisher.

    As the oft-quoted Mark Twain saying goes, in my bastardized version: Reports of the death of science fiction have been greatly exaggerated.

    if it meant getting rid of all the fantasy crap, and reviving the SF branch of SciFi (I'm sorry, should
    I have meant to say Siffy?), then great, let it blow up.

    As long as my favorite authors don't star in pr0n then I'm okay with it. People gotta eat. My scriptwriter friend paid his bills writing softcore porn.

    I say it's about bloody time these hoity toity sci-fi writers got of their collective bums and started being useful members of society. Swanning around in their dressing gowns chewing on pencils all day. Some of us have real jobs where we have to be up by 1pm and spend hours every night slaving away in theaters and venues watching everything from dance, opera, rock & roll to theater & movies. I bet your average sci-fi writer wouldn't last 10 minutes in my world.

    and to answer another of Charlie Janes sex laden questions: yes.

    Charlie, are you and Annalee planning on opening a sci-fi/fantasy porn shop and are using io9 for concept testing ?

    Who else here can't stand Twitter? Hate the name, hate the branding, hate the vernacular.
    Take 1 part of facebook, emphasize it, repeat. No thanks.
