SF Writers Say Smart Things: WJW On Geek Fiction

I’ve never mistaken my hobbies for real life. I’ve always craved real life, even when I didn’t have one. I’ve sought out life, even when I didn’t know how. I’ve always tried to live real life, even when I didn’t have a clue.

I travel a lot. I talk to strangers. I eat their candy.

—Walter Jon Williams

Go read the fine rant that links to. I heartily endorse it.
