(...) Right on target! George R.R. Martin seems to be a "writer's writer" because I hear his name from people on author panels and invariably nobody in the room recognizes it! Since you said it again I must now look him up! You know what is funny (...) (24 years ago, 16-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)
