In the midst of a small debate about just what constitutes SF, it occured to me
to ask: as a writer, why do you work in SF?  What attracts you to the genre?

I've been a fan since I read my first Bradbury story at the age of 12 or so.
That was about the same time SW and CE3K came out, so the living was good. Over
the last 5-10 years, I've felt a real dearth of the good stuff--of both the
written and dramatic kind.  So, as a longtime Lurker, I'd like to take a moment
to say THANKS.   B5 was a hell of a ride, and furnished me with quite an
enjoyable obsession/distraction from grad school when it was *most* needed.

I've worked in a variety of genres -- murder mysteries, SF, detective series,
animation/comedy, horror...I kinda like all of them.  If I have a predilection
toward SF it's simply because I grew up an SF fan.  In brief: ah likes it.
