It came about as follows: over the years when I was involved in dianetics, I wrote the beginnings of many stories. I would get an idea, and then write the beginning, and then never touch it again.

In a sense, there's a great truth to that, but, also I was a great reader.

I first read science fiction in the old British Chum annual when I was about 12 years old.

Recruiting Station was a story that came as the result of many anxious awakenings during many nights.

Well, first of all, going off with dianetics was based upon a thought of mine.

My theory was that what I had to do was make a study of human behavior.

Chum was a British boy's weekly which, at the end of the year was bound into a single huge book; and the following Christmas parents bought it as Christmas presents for male children.

In those days I was new to covers; merely felt pleased that a story of mine had been honored. I later met Rogers who did some of my early covers and I was impressed with him.

I don't recall having any self-awareness about the intricacy of my stories.
