the best and kindest thing you can do for all your favorite media artists is simple. media (books, magazines, websites, music, films...) is the original virus.
give your favorite media to someone that you think might like it.
blurbs from neil gaiman, harlan ellison, and whatnot are all lovely things. but they are not as lovely as a blurb from you to your best friends. those are the best blurbs of all.
even better than a blurb? imagine if your best friend was handed something and told, "here is the virus that i am giving you. be infected with this art."
i explains it because folk be looking at me funny when i randomly give 'em something and be like, "hey, check it out. pass it on if you want, or give it back. whatever."
I do that too! Except some people start becoming skeptical of my intentions... ("what do you want from me?", "does this mean you're courting me?", etc.)
