But me, I hate deadlines. I'm fairly self-disciplined I suppose (in fact I stick so rigidly to my daily checklists that I think it borders on mental illness) but there's few things worse than struggling to be creative against a looming deadline. That blankness. eugh.

i was fortunate enough to meet douglas adams once back in the late 90's (1998?)
at a electronic gaming convention in LA,..

he was very tall..

also, he was releasing his 'starship titanic' video game..
so i got an autographed copy of that.. and he autographed
some novels, and also my laserdisc of 'hitchhikers' guide.

we talked for about 10 minutes about the books, and the
movie (which was still in development)...

he was one of the nicest, friendliest, and funniest persons
i've ever met..

i really miss his works...

be seeing you

I would have loved to meet him in person. I've always found his misanthropic, satirical social criticism to be strangely sad and uplifting at the same time. He truely is my most cherished writer.
