Like I said, I wasn't aware that Resnick *was* a writer, or rather that his writing consisted of any more than a bit of dabbling before (like Jim Baen) he decided that another part of the industry was more fitting to his strengths.
I tend to hate award-winning stuff. Hugo and especially Nebula voters seem to consider Big Themes And Concepts the vital thing, and the presence of a good story somewhere between "tertiary" and "irrelevant"
Still, I've interacted with him on the Bar a couple of times. Seems like a nice guy, and definitely smart. I'll look him up.
