But writing is zero calorie and doesn’t get sticky at warm temperatures. It is certainly quite easy to while away the hours creating characters, envisioning alternate realities and exploring ideas in a humorous way. Unfortunately reality has an unpleasant habit of asserting itself - bills, jobs, food, going to the loo etc. But I think that to write is to put off reality, what ever that is, as long as possible. So get red bills, stay unemployed, starve and wear a nappy.Science fiction, or perhaps it should be speculative fiction, is simply the first and only genre to consider when writing. If you are engaged in a work of imagination then why limited yourself to fluffy romance, septic horror, boring thriller or an unintelligible mystery when you do anything you like!“He attacked everything in life with a mix of extraordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which.” Douglas Adams.view less
