My gut feeling is that paper and ink are going to be with us for a long time yet, and in substantial quantities, though certainly books are now going to be available in other forms.

I have some good stories yet to tell.

There's a big overlap with the people you meet at the fantasy and science fiction cons.

I wouldn't like to just do one story or one type of stories all the time.

I guess if one set of my books was selling like Stephen King's, and the other wasn't selling at all, editors would want me to do the ones that sold like Stephen King's. But they seem to be willing to let me pick what I want to do next.

I started writing seriously about 1960, at the fairly advanced age of 30.

I am generally way out of touch with trends, except now and then I am surprised to find myself leading one, like sympathetic vampires.
