Guy Hasson

Guy Hasson, a writer whom I met a while back in the legendary Rehovot Science Fiction club (the one organized by Aharon Sheer for 11 years, and held monthly at Bill and Tova Silverman’s place) has resurfaced, having located me through the web.
Apparently, he’s got a web site collecting his Science Fiction stories, Science Fiction for Everyone, and it’s being collected in a book by Bitan.
He’s also got 2 novels in e-book format, and he’s been busy for the last year or two with a comedy show called Sex in the small town, which played in ZOA house in Tel Aviv and elsewhere.
That Guy is a pillar of dedication and hard work.
I am in awe of him.
He makes me sick.

Tim O’Reilly answers a question

Tim O’Reilly answers a question about Dune, which is a good excuse for him to mention that he wrote a book Frank Herbert and link to his science fiction page. (I saw it on Rael Donerfest‘s blog, but he’s actually syndicating/mirroring BoingBoing).

I also note that “Ask Tim” doesn’t have a simple-to-find permenant link to the current question he’s answering. Annoying, and odd for O’Reilly, who are supposed to “get it”.

True Names, Vernor Vinge’s novella,

True Names, Vernor Vinge’s novella, is online. Lots of graphics, and the story is chopped up into pages, but this is still an awesome thing.

The Underground People

The Origin of Underground People, legends about elves and other hidden creatures, is a collection of creation myths (folklore stories, really), while THE DECEPTION OF THE DEPTHS: Humanity and the Ocean of Secrecy is a grand unified conspiracy theory tying together Elves, UFOs, Cthulhu and the second coming of Christ.
