If thereโs any other message in this to readers, itโs in these two characters as icons of hope, that it doesnโt make any difference where you come from, or where you went to school, or who you are, thereโs hope. That a kid from Jersey with Superman as the icon that kept him alive for years would one day end up writing the character is as absoutely unlikely as it is utterly inevitable. And if thatโs true for me, itโs true for you, if you follow your dreams and your passions in full flight. Donโt give up. No Limits. Itโs never too late to learn to fly.
J. Michael StraczynskiWe are in a tech-heavy society, plunging headlong into an unknown future. Science fiction is what allows you to stand back and analyze the impact of that and put it in context of how it affects people.
J. Michael StraczynskiThere's a rule of writing: if everything is funny, nothing is funny; if everything is sad, nothing is sad. You want that contrast.
