Michael Moorcock, Alan Moore, Iain Sinclair

So Michael Moorcock, Alan Moore and Iain Sinclair had a chat last night.

I was there.

Here are some things I wrote down while I was there.

I am instituting more-or-less arbitrary breaks, signalled by ===, to make this more readable.

But I don’t want to give it to them.

I do.
It is good, I think they will like it and that would make me happy.
But
I don’t want to not have it in my room.
I don’t know what to do.
