science fiction[edit]
I'm not making a comment on scientology, but isn't Hubbard frequently praised as a writer by other science fiction writers? Burkean (talk) 10:34, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
- As a human being, probably not. As a writer, yeah, that's actually not a stretch.Field Dreamer (talk) 00:11, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
Astounding Science Fiction[edit]
Way back when I was a wee kiddy (early 50s), I often read a magazine with the above title (at least I think that was the title). L Ron was an occasional contributor and I believe that this is where he first wrote of "Dianetics". Apparently he fell out with the editor John W Campbell over something before creating Scientology. Might be worth a mention in the article. Scream!! (talk) 22:04, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
