S.R. Delany's "Neveron" Stories

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.

Common interests seem more likely.  Delaney was mostly writing before Wolfe
- I think he's been writing mostly autobiographies and gay porn since the
'80s.  He has a new SF novel out recently, though the Tor review suggested
it is for the strong of stomach.
