Some ideas you have to chew on, then roll them around a lot, play with them before you can turn them into funky science fiction.

For me, the best thing about Cyberpunk is that it taught me how to enjoy shopping malls, which used to terrify me. Now I just imagine the whole thing is two miles below the moon’s surface, and that half the people’s right-brains have been eaten by roboticized steel rats. And suddenly it’s interesting again.

Science fiction writers put characters into a world with arbitrary rules and work out what happens.

I do enjoy reading some science fiction.

'Farscape' is not what you call hard science fiction.

I want to be the Cecil B. DeMille of science fiction.
