Oh, one thing I should put in here as a quasi-correction. I get credited here for helping inspire both the space princess and the blue collar working man protagonist. John C. Wright was writing about the awesomeness of space princesses before me (when I use the term in Appendix N, it’s because I picked it up from him.) Also, many of P. Alexander’s short reviews we host here cover Planet Stories tales that feature blue collar guys in space. That’s how I remember it, anyway…!
