Harlan Ellison: Alive and Definitely Kicking
Last night when I was looking for a clip on You Tube I came across a video of Harlan Ellison called Dreams With Sharp Teeth. Harlan was expounding on the subject of writers valuing their work enough to demand payment. It was Harlan alright, bigger than life, abrasive and brilliant.I was immediately caught in a time warp back to the 60s when I was avidly reading speculative fiction and Ellison was one of my favorite writers. His Nebula-winning story, A Boy and His Dog, introduced me to the term "novella" and each month’s fantasy and science fiction magazines were searched for one of his short stories.
