NEVER PUT ANYTHING BIGGER THAN YOUR ELBOW IN YOUR EAR The last two issues of this letter-substitute went to a lot more people than normal. (And a lot weren1t normal!) I just got carried away. In addition to the Lilapa 15 ("Free the Lilapa 15'") I made up 25 copies, most of which were passed on to a second party. Do you think I'm getting "fannish"? I certain do "go on" in these pages...and this paragraph. Oh, well, fandom is just a goddamn ego-trip. Harlan Ellison Harlan Ellison Harlan Ellison Harlan Ellison Harlan I did a dummmmmb thing last issue...I left out two pages. They were lost in the great pile of sheets for those two issues (and a special edition yet to come—something really different for Kteic!), so they are included right after this. I was showing pages from FUTUREWORLD and where I had Tuckerized, etc. Then I received an autographed copy of L'AMBASSADEURS DES OMBRES, the latest French color comic (he) by J.C.Mezieres et P. Christin. Mezieres is a friend og Philippe Hupp, who was here in LA just before the MidAmeriCon. He not only sent me a copy but added a huge full-page drawing! That, too, is introduced somewhere herein. (Thank you, Philippe! And thank you, J.C.! Merci!) I love Valerian. If you others are not familiar, you should check him out. The drawing is the BEST and the stories cinematic as hell, in that I can "read" them without knowing French.

Preface Gerry Canavan Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI Priscilla Wald “I don’t read science fiction . I just read serious writers like Proust and Joyce and Kafka. When science fiction has something serious to say, I’ll read it.” —Nicholas Brady, from Philip K. Dick, Radio Free Albemuth (1976) In late 2009, just as we were putting together the call for papers for this special issue, the online science fiction community was deeply engaged in a favorite pastime: arguing with itself about the nature of science fiction. The spur this time was several notorious statements by Margaret Atwood who, once again, was insisting on dissociating her own works—The Handmaid’s Tale, Oryx and Crake, and The Year of the Flood—from the genre, despite similarities in plot and theme.

  • JUDITH MERRIL-PDF-Sep23-07.Pdf (368.7Kb)
    JUDITH MERRIL: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND GUIDE Compiled by Elizabeth Cummins Department of English and Technical Communication University of Missouri-Rolla Rolla, MO 65409-0560 College Station, TX The Center for the Bibliography of Science Fiction and Fantasy December 2006 Table of Contents Preface Judith Merril Chronology A. Books B. Short Fiction C. Nonfiction D. Poetry E. Other Media F. Editorial Credits G. Secondary Sources About Elizabeth Cummins PREFACE Scope and Purpose This Judith Merril bibliography includes both primary and secondary works, arranged in categories that are suitable for her career and that are, generally, common to the other bibliographies in the Center for Bibliographic Studies in Science Fiction. Works by Merril include a variety of types and modes—pieces she wrote at Morris High School in the Bronx, newsletters and fanzines she edited; sports, westerns, and detective fiction and non-fiction published in pulp magazines up to 1950; science fiction stories, novellas, and novels; book reviews; critical essays; edited anthologies; and both audio and video recordings of her fiction and non-fiction. Works about Merill cover over six decades, beginning shortly after her first science fiction story appeared (1948) and continuing after her death (1997), and in several modes— biography, news, critical commentary, tribute, visual and audio records. This new online bibliography updates and expands the primary bibliography I published in 2001 (Elizabeth Cummins, “Bibliography of Works by Judith Merril,” Extrapolation, vol. 42, 2001). It also adds a secondary bibliography. However, the reasons for producing a research- based Merril bibliography have been the same for both publications. Published bibliographies of Merril’s work have been incomplete and often inaccurate.

He starts out by saying he felt guilty for not writing, etc etc. BUT YOU PEOPLE LISTEN, PLEASE! I don't want to make anyone feel guilty! My attempts to trim the mailing list are just an effort to cut down expenses, and not to bother anyone who doesn't want it with Kteic Magazine. None of you are under an obligation to write. Please believe that. Just now and again, though, I'd like verbal or written proof that (1) you still want to get KM; (2) you are getting KM. That's all. Now on with George's letter. Thanks for sending the photos of Sharman. I'll try to have the picture finished in time to exhibit at the World Fantasy Con in LA this coming October. The photos course are beautiful... beautiful subject: (almost-) automatically beautiful photos. If I were to pick a fault at all, it would be that they are obviously publicity photos. And the only thing wrong with that is that it bothers me occasionally knowing that people will have the picture I used as referance material to compare with the finished painting. I make so many changes fox’ character or composition, that I'm always afraid people will point out every minute way in which the painting differs from the original photo and assume that it was be- .• cause I couldn’t do any better.

The book has been tremendously well received: it was described by The New Orleans Times- Picayune as a “satisfying read for the true fan,” and by countercultural website dangerousminds.net as being “like an eagle soaring through time.” This work is Young’s first book, and was written when he was 65, at a time when he felt a musical dry spell after having stopped drinking and taking drugs.
