Be very careful about what you satirise, it can become reality with remarkable ease. I suspect the market here is still too small for things like how to vote cards for Ditmars to make a difference in terms of sales & reputation, but an SF book with a Hugo or Nebula award (or both) on the can make a real difference commercially & the Oscars go without saying.
Oh, this has nothing to do with the current post, but the other night I heard a 1940's "Suspense" radio version of H.P.Lovecraft's "The Dunwich Horror" starring Holloywood great Ronald Coleman and I think it is one of the best adaptions of a genre story ever. It was even done as a pseudo live to air version, like Orson Welles War of the Worlds broadcast. Isn't that weird, a great SF classic ep that no one knows about...
