As far as Im concerned, I didnt dream - ever.

For years, I thought I simply didn't dream. I felt left out. Everybody else had a thing I didn't have.

I've always written very tightly, and there's a good reason for that. There's no point in using words that you're not going to apply.

I write a story as if it were a letter to someone and essentially, that's what you do.

My wife is beginning to instruct me on means to retrieve dreams, and bit by bit, it does seem to be working.

I quit my job, and went ashore to become a writer.

I repeat Sturgeon's Revelation, which was wrung out of me after twenty years of wearying defense of science fiction against attacks of people who used the worst examples of the field for ammunition, and whose conclusion was that ninety percent of it is crud.
