“Stories pass the experienced world back and forth between them as a metaphor, until it is worn out. Only then do we realize that meaning is an act. We must repossess it, instant to instant in our lives.” WorldStoriesRealizingOur LivesMetaphorInstantWornBack And ForthWorn Out Author:M. John Harrison
“SF is an opportunity to have an intense relationship with your own imagination. It's a kind of drive-by poetry, trashy and addictive; it's fun. After that, for me, it's an opportunity to explore that kind of imaginative artifact from inside, and use a little camped-up contemporary science as a way of generating new metaphors around my typical obsessions.” WayKindLittlesUseOpportunityFunImaginationMetaphorIntenseContemporaryObsessionTypicalImaginativeArtifacts Author:M.
