Dear Mr. Asimov,
Every story i write, i feel as if i am cheating you and your memory. there was no wikipedia in your time, no dictionary.com and thesaurus.com. what you wrote was based on your knowledge and ability. my stories are written on the basis of instant researches on wikipedia. i do not know synonyms of words i use, i look them up on thesaurus.com
when u began writing science fiction, it was a struggle. i have blogs and forums where i can always put myself to be read. you were a 'fan', u wrote letters to your fav writers and u interacted with fellow fans...you helped build the science fiction community that today i claim to be a part of. i know no author, mail no author, and know no fan. the only way i contribute to the community is by buying some of the science fiction novels...some
i take the easy way out and come up with mediocre stuff, you took the honest path and came up with stuff to outlast generations...
i am sorry that i cheat thus
amrit
