Pat Robertson? Oh right...

12. David Gerrold...

For those who don’t know, he’s a science fiction author of many novels and more than a few episodes in at least two TV series*. He has some great novels [including a series called “The War Against The Chtorr” (the “Ch” is pronounced as a “k.” So, kuh-TORE). I’ve been waiting for him to finish that series for over 30 years, now. He has G.R.R Martin beaten, hands down for “longest stretch between series volumes”].

*Many of you are probably familiar with some of his work, without realizing it. Mr. Gerrold first came to prominence as the writer for what is arguably one the most famous episodes in the original Star Trek series: The Trouble With Tribbles. He also wrote several episodes of Star Trek: TNG.

The man has an amazing, singular wit.
