It was the wierd and hauntingly beautiful loves in his stories that made A. Merritt famous. Of course you may argue, but all are not like Merritt's. Even so, love interest in a story is still better than none. Well then, you ask, what about stories where the girls or guys misbehave rather badly. What about SEXY SCIENCE STORIES? To that I answer that a little in the stories is okay. You can overdo anything, like having the hero overeat in the story in a disguting manner. We all misbehave at times, including little Helen. Come on all you girls, and boys too. All of you who have ever loved or believe in love, or in beauty, or in women in stf., write to us here and lets form a bloc of fans.
