Char...Andy, your thoughts reflect a lot of my own. Charles was a "friend" for years, even though I actually only met him last August. I was given a gift subscription to <i>Locus</i> before I began submitting works anywhere. But it gave me the nudge to take my writing more seriously, as I learned a lot about the business from Charles and <i>Locus</i>. Hell, I first heard about Clarion through the interviews in <i>Locus</i>, which is how I met you. (grin)<br /><br />So despite being invited to WOTF XXIV to give "the Reality Speech", my getting into SF writing is, in part, all Charles' fault.
