Asimov also declined. I can't stand his later novels. Clarke's quality dropped because he started collaborating with less skillful writers. It bothers me, even, that he wrote his two novels 2001 and 2010 in collaboration with filmmakers. Kubrick's film is far better, and has reached more people than Clarke's novel, which is a let down after seeing the film. I'm having a hard time teaching him.
