Ah, yes. That person. A jerk, for sure. Though I do appreciate the efforts to see IF and traditional literary work as a single continuum. Not in terms of inspiration, which we see today, but in terms of critical analysis. Still, it is an old truth that even a person haunted by bad ideas might find a good one now and then.
I actually remember him, because one of the most memorable threads that I’ve seen here is his:
I believe that I read conversations about suicide–thanks to my own experiences with mental illness and mentally ill people–differently than most do. Once I saw the avatar photo, I knew him instantly.
I am half-revolted and half-interested, again, because of the thread’s literary concerns.
