How was Mind Crash received by the world when it was first unleashed as a subscription-only newsletter?
A. It was generally well received, having excellent reviews in the science fiction and occult press of the day, which I take to be a great compliment. I hope this is a reflection on just how diverse the content really is. In fact, I had a problem when the publishing company asked me to categorise the book. By default, I’m reliably informed that poetry gets categorised as “non-fiction”, so there’s a bit of that going on. But clearly some of it is also fiction, although I do sometimes wonder. Some of the stuff I originally wrote had to be removed as it resembled recent world events – even though I’d written it at least 10 years beforehand. I’m not trying to say that I can see the future or anything weird like that, but some of the details were a little too accurate for my liking.
