Writers write what is interesting to them. Science Fiction writers wonder - constantly wonder - about the universe. Is there life on other worlds or are we all alone? What would life be like if we had two suns? How would a culture evolve if the dinosaurs had not died off? What will people in the future be like? Science fiction stories are stories of "why?" and "what if?"


Science fiction is the most important literature in the history of the world, because it's the history of ideas, the history of our civilization birthing itself. ...Science fiction is central to everything we've ever done, and people who make fun of science fiction writers don't know what they're talking about.
