Creativity

Quote_1.png
James Gunn
"I don't know if there is any one secret to successful writing, but one important step is to move beyond imitation and discover what you can write that no one else can - that is, find out who you are and write that in an appropriate narrative and style."

Success

Quote_1.png
James Gunn

Life

Quote_1.png
James Gunn
"I could give you some names of Workshop participants who are as good as many who are being published but haven't had the right editor recognize their merit or have not been adequately published."

Being

Quote_1.png
James Gunn
"I prefer to bring these to the service of story rather than to let them replace narrative."

Service

Quote_1.png
James Gunn
"That certainly is one approach to take. My own is to acknowledge the inner child and try to work with my first fascination with science fiction. I have tried to build on its idea content and narrative drive rather than to discard them."

Science

Quote_1.png
James Gunn
"In hard-core science fiction in which characters are responding to a change in environment, caused by nature or the universe or technology, what readers want to see is how people cope, and so the character are present to cope, or fail to cope."

Change

James Gunn
