I wrote the very first stories in science fiction which dealt with homosexuality, The World Well Lost and Affair With a Green Monkey.
From Theodore Sturgeon
Writing is a communication.
Inner space is so much more interesting, because outer space is so empty.
I quit my job, and went ashore to become a writer.
As far as hypnosis is concerned, I had a very serious problem when I was in my twenties. I encountered a man who later became the president of the American Society of Medical Hypnosis. He couldn't hypnotize me.
Ninety percent of everything is crap.
I feel angry that I can't be hypnotized. I'm not putting it down, and I'm not saying that it doesn't exist. I have talked to a great many people who are very good at it, but so far nobody has ever been able to hypnotize me.
I find to my mixed astonishment that I do dream, but I didn't know it.
Basically, fiction is people. You can't write fiction about ideas.
Science fiction, outside of poetry, is the only literary field which has no limits, no parameters whatsoever.
