Ah, Ursula...one of my favorite major bitches. That's a compliment, by the way, and she would smile to hear herself referred to that way, because that's how she refers to herself. Woe be unto the SciFi Channel exec who consulteth not a consultant of her order, and who messeth with a plotline and characters she wrote. My favorite quote of hers, from a talk in which she was getting a little tired and cranky and a young woman stood up and asked if she had any specfic advice for the *women* writers in the audience: "If you want your writing to be taken seriously, don't marry and have kids, and above all, don't die. But if you have to die, commit suicide. They approve of that." :-)
