Happy birthday, William Gibson!





March 17, 1948: William Gibson, Father of Cyberspace

Gibson has been my favorite writer -- and foremost influence -- since I belatedly discovered his work in high school. And he's never slowed down.

Gibson's a leader of the Genre - even now when he (sometimes)claims to no longer be writing "science fiction".

His last two novels might not have been SF, but they have the SF sensibility of his former books. When you're as good as Gibson, you don't need genre.
