I'm not quite pompous enough to think of myself as an educator or a man capable of definitive refutation of falsehoods.

I'm just the kind of person who seems designed, probably by nature, to try to make a difference.

People in extreme conditions are suddenly naked, realer than normal, perhaps even more alive.

Labels only confuse people. The smarter people recognize artists who transcend categories. But I always try to entertain. It's in my nature; writers are born to entertain. If that means working ostensibly within a genre, fine.

Innocence could be considered a discrete state of mind.

As far as I know Misha wrote the first cyberpunk poetry.

Misha's importance and distinctiveness are beginning to be noticed, there's beginning to be some kind of rip-tide here that will soon become a wave of recognition for a book that the world is beginning to catch up to... We weren't ready before. We'd better be ready now. Because it's the 21st century, any minute now, and that means that Misha's time has come. In more ways than one.
