I’m Cordwainer Smith’s daughter, but I’m not really a serious science fiction fan. So while I can do this blog okay, I’m thinking that there may be some of you readers who actually have more interesting things to say about Cordwainer Smith stories, his vision, his place in science fiction, or whatever. Commentary on other science fiction authors that you like and why you think other CS fans would like them would also be welcome. If you write science fiction yourself, what influence has CS had on your writing. Come to think of it, if you don’t write science fiction, how about a post on how CS influenced your life?

Would you like to do a guest blog post, or several?

If you are interested,

you can contact me via the contact page here. That form goes to one of my email accounts.  If you don’t hear back from me within a few days, please resend your message as I don’t find cyberspace to be completely reliable.

I could use things that have already been posted elsewhere online, so long as you have the rights to them, or they could be selections from articles you’ve written, again providing you have the rights to them. (I’m not going to do any paperwork about rights, but will expect you to say in an email that you wrote it and have the rights.) I consider an ideal blog post to be about 300 to 500 words, but will happily accept things that are shorter or longer. I would also be glad to take a longer article and turn it into a series…. you could divide it up, or I would.  A link to your website, if you have one, will be included if you’d like.

If English is not your first language, that’s fine. I probably will do some minimal editing for grammar and spelling, but I am fine with your writing showing that English isn’t your native tongue, provided your ideas can be followed. After all, I live mostly in Mexico and believe me my Spanish has lots of errors, but I communicate fine with people here.

Thanks for considering this.
