dirkcjelli asked:Any possibility of a book of non-fiction writing on politics and society from Stross, Lake, Brin, Macleod, Banks, Brust etc, or do the details of the publishing industry (including making a living) preclude such a project?
autopope was kind enough to respond thusly:Yes, it's commercially marginal, but if someone wants to edit it as a labour of love I'd be happy to contribute.
Rather further downthread,

So it occurs to me this might be worth pursuing in my copious spare time. I've got an iron clad rule against including myself in fiction editing projects, but I might be willing to edit this as a non-fiction effort. Unfortunately, I don't know these folks, other than the inestimable
autopope. So I'm curious, who would you like to see in such a collection of essays and rants? Besides (presumably), me and autopope, along with the aforementioned messers Brin, Macleod, Banks and Brust, should they be interested in the concept.
