  • Approval of God: He was against a film adaptation of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, since he had mixed feelings on the book itself. However, when he saw some special effects footage, he raved about how it was exactly what he imagined. Unfortunately, he didn't live long enough to see the finished film.
  • Died During Production: He was working on a novel called The Owl in Daylight at the time of his death. There are multiple, conflicting plot synopses, but the most complete one suggests it would've involved aliens who can't hear sounds possessing a hack composer in order to experience aural sensations by proxy, transforming him into an avant-garde artist.
