CORRECTION: EVERYTHING THAT’S WRONG WITH TRADITIONALLY-PUBLISHED, JOCKEYING FOR AWARDS SCIENCE FICTION. SCIENCE FICTION IS DOING FINE IN INDIE:  Everything wrong with SF/F in one post. The vultures are fighting harder and harder over tinier and tinier scraps.  And even they can’t convince themselves that they compare in any way, shape or form to the greats of the genre’s past.  Hence the screaming.  It’s akin to a child covering his ears and shrieking, so as not to hear the denial of his fantasies.
