Title: Robert J. Sawyer
Post by: Rusted Robot on March 01, 2014, 12:21:32 PM
Hey everybody!  We just interviewed sci-fi author Robert J. Sawyer on our podcast.  Asking around my work, and general people I know, about 90% of people have not heard of him.  He just happens to be my all-time favourite writer.  What I want to know, is how many of you have heard of him?  He's the guy who wrote the novel that the TV series Flash Forward was based on.

Here's the link to our latest episode:  http://therustedrobot.podbean.com/2014/03/01/episode-13-robert-j-sawyer-master-of-ideation/ (http://therustedrobot.podbean.com/2014/03/01/episode-13-robert-j-sawyer-master-of-ideation/)

I have read at least 8 of his books.  He beats the hell out of Gibson's Neuromancer.

Fascinating!  What an interesting piece of research!  Thank you so, so much!

Please forgive me for being so long in replying -- I've been traveling.

All best wishes!
