Don't ask me. I avoid reality T.V. like it's the Bubonic Plague! In my opinion the greatest oxymoron of our age is "Reality T.V." if there are television cameras rolling there is no reality.

[Elckerlyc]

It is, though I confess having Googled it first when this genre was announced to be certain I had the right picture in mind.

Well someone did.

Fritz Leiber.

 

[Daysman]

Yup, had to look it up too — didn't realise it was so recent a thing...

 

[Alex The G and T]

Recent? The first Faffrd and Mouser adventure was published in 1939; though it looks like Fritz didn't coin the term until '61?

Yup, early sixties, like I said, I had to look it up – I know SF pretty well but not F, not at all.

Apologies for not logging in for awhile. I have been literally working 12 hours days, almost every day, for over a month. I told my boss the other day if I don't get some time off, I walk.

Not sure if I'm going to compete in this cycle's contest; I need some time to relax and refuel. I've missed way too much.

Sorry to hear that. Sometimes you need to make yourself the priority.
