My family and I have been enjoying this video and I just now thought of you.  I know you’re talking to lots of writers for stories.  Careful of Mr. Ellison!  Of course, if you do ask him for a freebie, we may get another video as enjoyable as this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj5IV23g-fE

I’ve asked him a few times already… and yes… there’s nothing to show for it!

Mathew, thanks for pointing this out. ‘I don’t even take a piss without being paid for it’ classic! And that was one of the milder statements. Mmm not much chance a free story there then I guess.

Made me laugh before even the first cup of coffee in the morning.

Tony, you were very brave to ask,  (BTW) have you got good fire insurance?

I guess its fair to assume that Harlan would have been in support of the recent writer’s strike then . . .

He walked the picket lines with everyone else, yes.  He was less than happy with the deal they made.  Take a look at this for more Ellison fun: http://www.warrenellis.com/?p=5610

Your first thought may be, he’s got plenty of money, he can wait them out forever, unlike some.  But I know Harlan was scraping by when he started out back in the late fifties, and he didn’t compromise with anyone back then either.

And here’s how he feels about his fans: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNWcq7xijxU (starting at the 3:35 mark).
