I think it would be interesting to read about, but not a good idea necessarily to write about.<br /><br />As for futuristic novels? I have yet to write one and it makes me nervous. There's just so much to think about. Taking modern slang, ideas, science, and trying to figure out where we'll believably be years from now with all our discoveries and thoughts. Hard to do!E.B.
