Ok so whos the best Sci Fi Writer???
Jann:
It is very hard to pick out a best author, or even a favourite author, the best I can manage is to choose my favourite science fiction. This is the Ringworld created by Larry Niven, absolutely brilliant science fiction as well as a fascinating scientific concept. I once had a Ringworld poster on my bedroom wall . . . wished I could go there . . . tried to write some science fiction once . . . only managed a few chapters before I realized I had no idea where the plot was going . . . luckily the assignment was for a single chapter.

that's a very good point to make, actually - what I put was what I enjoy, which isn't neccessarily the "best"
what defines the best, anyway?
