22 Nov 2005From Roger Zelazny’s “Loki 7281”, a short story about Roger Zelazny’s word-processor:
“He’s begun writing a new novel. Predictably, it involves an immortal and an obscure mythology. Jeez! And reviewers say he’s original.”
“This book could be good if I kill off his protagonist fast and develop this minor character … he doesn’t have amnesia like the other guy – he usn’t even a prince or a demigod. I think I’ll switch mythologies on him, too. He’ll never notice.”
“He just swooped back in and wrote another long passage — one of those scenes where the prose gets all rhythmic and poetic while humans are copulating.”

Re: Excellent!
It’s in my copy of “The Last Defender of Camelot”, a short story collection.
Remind me to lend it to you once I’m done.
