    Book   Thinking   Long

    Book   Ideas   Fiction

I love Tolkien and I love Dungeons & Dragons, so the opportunity to have a fantasy-based RTS, or real time strategy game, at that time, seemed cool. I started playing it, and the early games were simple, but fun and they had these great heroes.

  • Much blood has also been spilled on the carpet in attempts to distinguish between science fiction and fantasy.

Fantasy is something that COULDN'T happen - though often you only wish that it could.

    Blood   Wish   Fiction  
    Arthur C. Clarke (2012). “The Collected Stories of Arthur C. Clarke: History Lesson”, p.6, RosettaBooks
  • ...You believe that the kind of story you want to tell might be best received by the science fiction and fantasy audience. I hope you're right, because in many ways this is the best audience in the world to write for. They're open-minded and intelligent. They want to think as well as feel, understand as well as dream. Above all, they want to be led into places that no one has ever visited before. It's a privilege to tell stories to these readers, and an honour when they applaud the tale you tell.

    Dream   Believe   Writing  
  • Part of the particular interest and beauty of science fiction and fantasy: writer and reader collaborate in world-making.

    Ursula K. Le Guin (2015). “Steering the Craft: A Twenty-First-Century Guide to Sailing the Sea of Story”, p.96, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

    "Biography/ Personal Quotes". www.imdb.com.
  • Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible.

  • At some point, every science fiction and fantasy story must challenge the reader's experience and learning. That's much of the reason why the genre is so open to experimentation and innovation that other genres reject--strangeness is our bread and butter. Spread it thick or slice it thin, it's still our staff of life.

    Orson Scott Card, Terry Brooks (2010). “The Writer's Digest Guide to Science Fiction & Fantasy”, p.21, Writer's Digest Books
  • Science-fiction balances you on the cliff. Fantasy shoves you off.

    Introduction to "The Circus of Dr. Lao" by Charles G. Finney, 1956.
  • I do have a collection of mid-century, small-press science fiction and fantasy hardcovers that is my most focused and dedicated collection. Everything else I tend more to acquire or amass than collect. I have vinyl records I listen to all the time when I work. But I don’t collect records. I just buy records where the price seems right and it’s music I actually listen to.

    "Michael Chabon’s Vinyl Draft". Interview with Michael Mechanic, www.motherjones.com. September 2012.
  • The difference between science fiction and fantasy … is simply this: science fiction has rivets and fantasy has trees.

We kind of got the best of both British and American television and books, science fiction and fantasy, and so on. So I'm familiar with a lot of, for example, American books and television that a British author of my generation might not be.

    "A Conversation With Roger Zelazny". Talking with Terry Dowling and Keith Curtis in Science Fiction Vol. 1, #2, June 1978.
  • I grew up a really nerdy kid. I read science fiction and fantasy voraciously, for the first 16 years of my life. I read a lot of classic Cold War science fiction, which is much of the best science fiction, so I speak the language well, which is a commodity that's not easy to come by in Hollywood.

  • It's funny because when I was growing up, I was really into science fiction and fantasy as a kid. And, when I first became a screenwriter, I ended up really just doing historical drama and non-fiction based stuff, like Band of Brothers and stuff that didn't get made, but was also non-fiction.

  • Oh, I’m nerdy about science fiction and fantasy and graphic novels and reading, and I’m nerdy about board games. My favorite board game is a board game I’m working on right now. It’s a game of Napoleonic era naval warfare, and it’s going to be fun.
