Who do we know is chummy with whom among authors in the field?
I got to wondering after seeing that pic of KJA with Orson Scott Card practically in his lap again yesterday. I haven't really paid much attention to this sort of thing in the past, wasn't all that interested. Mention of Dan Simmons in the other thread reminded me of when I tried contacting him twice a few months back (once by PM through the board on his site, and once by direct email) to see if he would confirm that rumor (which I think I heard from Byron) that he was one of the authors who had been approached about writing something set in the Duniverse before Brian and Kevin got hitched. From his complete lack of response, I started wondering if he and Kevin might not be friends. (They're both in Colorado, after all.)
Anybody know anything?
