Writing, I`m convinced, should be a subversive activity - frowned on by the authorities - and not one cooed over and praised beyond common sense by some teacher.
There`s a unique bond of trust between readers and authors that I don`t believe exists in any other art form; as a reader, I trust a novelist to give me his or her best effort, however flawed.
Movie SF is, by definition, dumbed down - there have only been three or four SF movies in the history of film that aspire to the complexity of literary SF.
