I mean, OK, if we're going to take the "would you date....?" thing to its absurdist extremities, then why not raise the question?

And I'm not necessarily talking about me here. I could be talking about Douglas Adams or Isaac Asimov. Well, they're both dead, but you know what I mean. You probably wouldn't want to date a dead guy. Or maybe you would, but then you're probably on the wrong site.




there's a site for necrophiliacs???

gee the internet opens the door to so much informationsurprised


DeceasedAuthorDating.com

Now, I have to be honest with you, it's a small site.

And you NEVER get answers to e-mail.

Would You Date A Sci-Fi Author?



No. Horror writer, yes. Sci-fi, no. That would be too...weird. laugh


I think Stephen King is more socially acceptable than I am. I'm working on it. Not very hard, but still....

I actually used that word today in another forum on another site. A girl posted some gossipy accusations about another member. I said "I don't know whether I should thank you for the information or make a snarky comment about people and their drama."

Of course the snarky comment won out.

The funny thing was, she replied giving me a hard time for making the "snaky" comment. "Snaky"? Did I say something about a cobra?

By the way, I am not actually complicated. The people who make that accusation have no idea what they're talking about. I suspect most of them are in Congress.

There’s worse out there…

A writer… make sure he’s got food & drink near the desk and dust him off occasionally.

A mechanic… your car is always in pieces being “fixed”.

A repair man… your house is always a mess while something’s being “fixed”.

A computer tech… your computer’s always a mess…

You get the general idea.

He was brilliant. I've read a lot of his stuff, even the non-fiction stuff. He did a book called Asimov's Biographical Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, which gave capsule bios of 1500 of the world's most important scientists. An absolute pleasure to read.

Yes, then I could read his next books before they came out. That might be pure bliss!


Plus you'd get to see the five million continuity errors that he hopefully fixes before the book comes out....!




Shoot! That's half the fun! Seeing what makes him tick.

Cookbook writers are a better choice.

You'll always have something good to eat.

And they actually sell books.
