My thoughts on SF & Fantasy: * There are dozens of genres and sub genres in a big messy Venn diagram * pulp exists * sword-and-planet-exists * Hard SF, new wave, blah blah blah all exist * and they're all good * SF and F overlap at the margins * neither is a subset of the other

10/ The top level category, if there is one, is "speculative". Almost no one uses that term, but it's there if you care to. One decent Venn diagram among many (via https://annieneugebauer.com/2014/03/24/what-is-speculative-fiction/ …). We can quibble about details, but it gestures in the right direction.pic.twitter.com/nK65LN2ufP

This is completely correct. And by all means rock on fantasy authors. Even if it ain't Science Fiction.
