Gibson blogging?

| No Comments

I've been looking forward to one of my favorite authors to resume his blogging, William Gibson. When I read on Neil Gaiman's blog that "Bill" Gibson had started again, I was very excited. Having read everything "Bill" had written, I was looking forward to the clever, cutting edge thought that I had come to know and love from books like Neuromancer and Idoru.

Well, thus far, Gibson's blog seems to be a simple anti-Bush blogroll. In Karen's words..."meh."

There aren't enough blogs out there, pundits out there who can barely string a few paragraphs of fantasy together to keep a 6th grader interested, but can wrote to the ends of the earth as to why Kerry, or Bush, is a fraud and the worst thing since sliced bread?

But there's only ONE William Gibson, only one who could have put together a Tour-de-force work such as Neuromancer, which had the appeal of Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying" for me. And for him to turn his attentions to the political race like this in a forum where we'd like to see insights on WRITING, and the process that only he can enlighten us on, is..well...meh.
