Cool. I just couldn't remember his name/how to spell it a the time I posted. I'm really enjoying Permanence. Your posts are probably where I got the idea to check out this book, I daresay. I know it was somewhere on LJ.

I appear to be Olaf Stapledon. I've likewise not read anything of his, though I have certainly heard of him.

I wonder if this is more about the author (personally) or their works.

Yeah, I could see certain of those questions echoing personal details of Heinlein's life, for example. His biography is one I know more about than the average SF writer.

I am completely thrilled with my result, as he is one of my favorites. In fact, I'm currently re-reading Neuromancer.

I am: William Gibson The chief instigator of the "cyberpunk" wave of the 1980s, his razzle-dazzle futuristic intrigues were, for a while, the most imitated work in science fiction.
