"I'm in favor of any technology that makes my work available to the reading public at a reasonable price."

"Even if you only want to write science fiction, you should also read mysteries, poetry, mainstream literature, history, biography, philosophy, and science."
Science
"An SF author who reads only SF will have little new to contribute, but someone with a broader experience will bring more to the table."
Experience

Time

Universe

Collaboration
"I've experienced writer's block, but never for more than a few days."
