I have never written science fiction

Describing himself as the heir to Edgar Allan Poe and Jorge-Luis Borges, Harlan Ellison is interviewed for the Studio 360 podcast. Look, I enjoy Ellison enormously and want to be like him when I grow up. But this is a bit much. Also, having finally seen Soldier and Demon With a Glass Hand, I think James Cameron has nothing to apologize for re. The Terminator.

You may want to be like Harlan when YOU grow up. Me, I have greater aspirations. I want to be like Harlan when HE grows up.

An admirable goal. Though I think mine is more realistic. :-)

Harlan Ellison is like more than a few other creative types out there: I'm glad he's around, and equally glad he's not in my immediate vicinity. And I'll sign on to Mark Alger's suggestion that "grown-up Harlan Ellison" is an oxymoron.
