Never open your story with a character thinking, I advise my students. As a further precaution, don’t put a character in a room alone – create a friend, a bystander, a genie, for God’s sake, any sentient creature with whom your main character can converse, perhaps argue or, better yet, engage in some action.

And what that means is that artificial intelligence has probably already occurred in the universe.

Empathy is a human trait. But lots of humans exercise some traits more energetically than others.

Most of my friends are into strange things I don't really understand - and with a few shameful exceptions I wish them all well.

Or to argue with another friend who wants to buy a single-shot Remington Fireball so he can go out and shoot cops from a safe distance?

You might declare that global warming and energy insecurity, not to mention urban sprawl and pollution, have intensified the sin of indulging one's motoring desires.

Chemistry is really about two people who like to act together, I think. It's like tennis in the most cliched way.

May and I are sisters. We'll always fight, but we'll always make up as well. That's what sisters do: we argue, we point out each other's frailties, mistakes, and bad judgment, we flash the insecurities we've had since childhood, and then we come back together. Until the next time.
