      Authors who are asked about their influences and go back hundreds of years to Shakespeare and Chaucer and the Iliad are cowards beneath contempt Authors who openly admit that they're influenced by big pop culture franchises (that might sue them) meet the bare minimum of decency

      Oh? And what about authors who do both? Where do you reckon *they* fall?

      There's nothing wrong with saying you've been influenced by the Bible and by Sophocles or whatever as long as they don't pretend that they've never consumed any younger media than that

      Like it's not that I disbelieve that George Lucas was influenced by Kurosawa and Joseph Campbell and all that with Star Wars, at many points those influences are obvious I dislike that he pretends not to know Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon were a thing before his movie though

          Oh no, not at all. 😄 I haven’t had my tea yet, that’s all, and sometimes blanket statements get me a bit combative if my blood sugar’s out of kilter. 😏

          As a writer of Star Trek and Marvel Comics tie-ins (extremely good ones) I think you're safe from accusations of disingenuously distancing yourself from genre
