A Frontier Without Fighting?
by L. Neil Smith
A long time ago, toward the beginning of my career, I actually
learned something, from a book reviewer, that I hadn't realized about myself. The
review covered both The Probability Broach and The Venus Belt, and the
reviewer was describing my popular character Lucille Gallegos Kropotkin, whom she
said "hates government and loves politics". All at once, I knew that I had created
an autobiographical character without intending to, and that Lucy was me, with the
brakes off.

What Happened To The Land of the Free?
by James Glaser
I've told this story many times, but it needs repeating for younger
people. Soon after I returned from Vietnam, I was living in Minneapolis going to the U
of M, and even with the tens of thousands of young women on campus, I ended up finding
a girlfriend who was going to the Art Institute in Chicago. Yeah, right. Life has never
been that easy for me.

Boobs in the Media
by Jonathan David Morris
A recent cover of TIME Magazine shows a woman breastfeeding her
three-year-old son. Apparently this is supposed to shock me. It certainly seems to have
shocked the culturemakers in the media, who can't stop talking about how controversial and
provocative it is. Even The View, a show of, for, and by women (trust me: most men
would rather have a testicle removed with a dirty steak knife than watch it) chose to blur
out the cover when they did a discussion about it. The question I have is, why? Why does
this image bother people? Does it bother people? And if it does, what does that say
about our culture?

You Do Not Provide
by Jim Davidson
"You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk
about at parties, you want me on that wall! You need me on that wall! We use words like
'honor,' 'code,' 'loyalty.' We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending
something. You use them as a punchline! I have neither the time nor the inclination to
explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that
I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just
said 'Thank you,' and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and
stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!"—Jack
Nicholson as Colonel Nathan R. Jessup, A Few Good Men, 1992

Even more about L. Neil Smith
The unabridged audio version of my 1983 novel The Nagasaki Vector,
brilliantly read by the great libertarian radio host Brian Wilson, is finally
available for purchase.
Many feel that this is the funniest book I've written so far—at least
intentionally—and features our old friend Win Bear, G. Howell Nahuatl, a
sapient coyote, time traveler Bernie Gruenblum, and Georgie, the time machine
who loves him.
The price: $12.99.
The place: CD Baby.
I understand that it will soon be available in iTunes, as well.
