A friend of mine, Charlie Stross, recently had to rewrite the outline of a novel because his bleak dystopian vision of the near-future "free world" wasn't _nearly_ bleak enough and the actual world has turned a lot worse. After his hasty rewrite, it's gone nastier again. His novel will now seem like a cheerful upbeat alternate timeline instead. -- Liam Proven • Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • Google Mail/Talk/Plus: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/Flickr: lproven • Skype/LinkedIn/AIM/Yahoo: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 • ČR/WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal: +420 702 829 053
