Question of the day

[james_davis_nicoll]

Should SFWA consider opening membership to writers of comic books and graphic novels?

[Wow, that was a dull way to frame that. Please add "Why or why not?]

Inspired by a discussion on one of the blogs that I read regularly, which I will not name for the moment so that people will not run over there and have their reactions influenced by the discussions that have already occured.

There's crossover of membership, but maybe not of concerns. Nielsen Hayden or Gaiman may know how both comics and prose publishing work, but most people in SFWA won't, and if they have to interact with comics publishers, they might just end up clomping around like morons inadvertantly.
