Another step closer

The book is now at the printer. That is all.

Small Murphies XXII

Getting it to the printers.

Yes - but -

Neil Gaiman in his blog: "The problem Dr Who always used to have was never a failure of imagination or a failure of script. It was a failure of obviously being a man in an unconvincing costume hiding behind some wobbly scenery."

Can we have the successful imagination back now? Or are we stuck with rewriting the phenotype instantly by changing the genotype every second episode?

Complete Laziness on my Part

Is there anywhere that Jeff Noon uses the phrase "science fiction ghetto," "sf ghetto" or "sci-fi ghetto"? I felt sure he has, possibly in my interview with him in Vector (but apparently not there). I need a sentence with him disparaging the genre as a ghetto and saying that he's not part of it.

There's a review of Falling Out of Cars which says it - "reflects his attempt to escape from what he views the SF ghetto." - but I want it in his words.
