Who would you consider to be the writers most obviously influenced by Lee?
[I could have sworn I had answered this comment hours ago, but it seems DW ate my reply. This will be an imperfect reconstruction.]
All the panelists identified themselves as such. My first choices were Gemma Files, Craig Laurance Gidney, and Storm Constantine, plus the later addition of Ysabeau Wilce; I should also have remembered Vera Nazarian. Other panelists suggested Margo Lanagan, Cassandra Khaw, A.C. Wise, Caitlín R. Kiernan, Poppy Z. Brite (Billy Martin), Kathe Koja, and other writers I am almost certainly forgetting. One of the virtues of a tribute anthology is that I feel it would draw out a range of not the usual suspects and that would be both valuable and fascinating.
