[maidhem]

Whoa, that sounds really deep! What led you to choosing to write about that?

[thesettingsun]

Spite about science fiction being dismissed as not 'serious' literature just because it takes places on Venus and not Venezuela.

[Spite is a great motivator.]

[maidhem]

[A very good one-- and Felicia nods in understanding.]

Makes sense. It always bothered me that no one thinks sci-fi is a good genre when the tv is full of crime dramas all over the place. Don't people get bored?

[thesettingsun]

Crime dramas will sell, and producers like money. The actually interesting concepts are too risky to put on the air, apparently.

[maidhem]

It's kind of sad though, when there are so many other interesting stories to tell!

[thesettingsun]

Books are a little less restricted in what you can get published, but genres are more strictly defined. Science fiction isn't 'serious'.

[maidhem]

See, I never understood why that is. There's so many good, serious plots in science fiction that it not being 'serious' just... doesn't make sense!

[thesettingsun]

Elitists are stupid. That's what motivates me to write this.

[Along with other things like making something of himself, making money, etc. etc.]

[maidhem]

[All of them were very good motives in Felicia's opinion. There was no arguing them!]

Well, I hope you're successful in writing your book. It really sounds like everyone needs to see that sort of change right now-- and I'm really excited to read it when you're done.

[thesettingsun]

You'll know when it's on the shelves. I'll make sure everybody in the city knows.

[And especially the people on Retrospec will have to deal with his advertising.]

[maidhem]

Hahah~ I look forward to it!

[Why not use the app for advertising? It was given to them anyway, and there were no rules made against using it for personal reasons, as far as Felicia knew.]

[thesettingsun]

I'll even sign your copy for you if you want!

[Assuming that she's getting one...]

[maidhem]

That'd be really awesome if you could!

[Because she was totally getting one. Totally.]

[thesettingsun]

Obviously I'm going to! Count on it!
