Ursus marijanus
I’ve never read his stuff, but he had serial works of like 800 pages a volume, so a penny a word shoulda had him in Cadillacs and single malt.I don’t recall the year, but I DO recall Elroy speaking to an SFWA convention*. His speech was a long diatribe against editors & the companies who hired editors & bought fiction (science fiction, specifically), against the penny-a-word, work-for-hire BS…and capped it all by saying something like ‘let’s face it - if we want to be paid what we’re worth, we shout stop writing - and start a religion.
No actual PROOF that he stopped at a liquor store on his way home to write Dianetics!….
He incorporated key elements of his turgid space opera in shite’ology. WHAT an ego.
