I'm interested in how people all over the world array themselves and go forth in the morning to do whatever they have to do to make a living.

I think the least important thing about science fiction for me is its predictive capacity.

I can't do fiction unless I visualize what's going on. When I began to write science fiction, one of the things I found lacking in it was visual specificity. It seemed there was a lot of lazy imagining, a lot of shorthand.

I've never really been very interested in computers themselves. I don't watch them; I watch how people behave around them. That's becoming more difficult to do because everything is around them.

I think that technologies are morally neutral until we apply them. It's only when we use them for good or for evil that they become good or evil.

If I write something set 60 years in the future, I am going to have to explain how humanity got there, and that's becoming quite a big job.

Science fiction writers aren't fortune tellers. Fortune tellers are fakes.

If I'm practicing making up what the characters will do, it's never good. In fact, when I catch myself doing that, I try to get rid of that section, and try and let them start making the decisions.

Generation X is dead. It has come to mean anyone aged 13 to 55 years old.

My dream scenario would be that you could go into a bookshop, examine copies of every book in print that they're able to offer, then for a fee have them produce in a minute or two a beautiful finished copy in a dust jacket that you would pay for and take home.
