30+ years ago I discovered Roger Zelazny. Then I discovered that we had gone to the same college. Then I discovered that I had climbed around some of the same architecture he had climbed around, at the selfsame college. It made his work that much sweeter.
Recently I discovered John Ringo, and his sideways fascination with the web comic sluggy Freelance, to which I have a bad addiction. I'm buzzing through several of his series since last week. Since I'm getting the books via a free ebook, I'm going to have to find a way to send him some money for the hours of good escapist SF he gave me.
So- have you ever found that kind of connection ?
