ARRRGGHHH!

over 20 years ago, I met him at a convention. In person, he seemed , ahem, "quite abrasive", but had lots of neat thoughts (and really awful jokes). At the time, he said he had outlines for the sequel to "Mirror Friend, Mirror Foe" that he wrote with George Takei. However, he was deliberately withholding it because there were negotiations ongoing for movie rights. He never got around to actually writing the damn thing, even thought the original book ended in a terrible cliffhanger. Wish Somebody could steal his notes and write the damn sequel - I wanna know what happened!
