To me that is completely uninteresting. I'd rather go to a house where there's great art and I have no idea who the work is by. ↗

I started in this racket in the early '70s, and when I was president of the Science Fiction Writers of America, of which I was like the sixth president, I was the first one nobody ever heard of. ↗
