RIP J.G. BALLARD
A fiction writer who, like Burroughs and Dick before him, has inspired me as much through the ideas of their writing as much (if not more) as his prose.

RIP J.G. Ballard
I've been moving and busy with other, less fun, less stimulating things lately. I have a few things to post, update, and comment upon, but my time is being eaten in several directions right now. Until then...
