I have no interest in non-fiction. I don't read it and don't watch it and don't write it, other than a little journalistic column.

Read, read, read, read and then read some more.

Find something that thrills you, and when you finish reading it for enjoyment, read it again line by line, paragraph by paragraph to see what you liked about it.

I knew how to read box scores and who the baseball heroes were before I had ever seen or even heard much of a game.

Most people write a lot of autobiography, but when I came to write autobiography I discovered that nothing interesting had ever happened to me. So I had to take the situation and invent stories to go with it.

I don't read other science fiction. I don't read any at all.
