Other SF writers? (Was: How list works and questions

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Hi there.

Can we add John Crowley too?

Also, re: Mi?ville: I felt that _Waiting For Jake_ was way too much  
"Look at me!  I've read Borges!  Aren't I clever?"

I must admit to a snarky chuckle when I found that _The Wasp In A Wig_  
is one of the best-beloved children's books in Bas-Lag, though.
