I'm Hal Clement (Harry C. Stubbs).

I've never heard of him. The only science fiction I read is Heinlein (Stranger In A Strange Land is one of my favorite books) and Ben Bova.

Allegedly I am someone whom I have never heard of (which, frankly, doesn't bode well for me succeeding at anything in a significant way).

I am:
Olaf Stapledon
Standing outside the science fiction "field", he wrote fictional explorations of the futures of whole species and galaxies.


Which science fiction writer are you?

I'm Robert Heinlein... but then already I knew that, considering him to be my philosophical role model.

I am:
E.E. "Doc" Smith
The inventor of space opera. His purple space war tales remain well-read generations later.

Odd.... I haven't read any Doc Smith. I thought I would be more like Heinlein myself.
