“It's interesting how many science fiction writers get going when they are very young. I was on a program with Greg Bear and he mentioned that he had gotten started writing when he was eight. And I began writing when I was 10. I think we're influenced by the stuff, we find it and we love it and we're influenced by it....I know I collected my first rejection slip when I was 13, and I went on collecting them for a long time after that.” ThinkingKnowsWritingFirstsLongYoungStuffInterestingFictionBearsLong TimeProgramScience FictionEightRejectionSlipsCollectingFiction Writers Author:Octavia Butler
“The show with Buckley and Vidal was happening live. There was no editing. There was no delay. So they were aghast. How America reacted is sort of the most interesting thing because as these debates progressed, the ratings were going up. So people began to program these sort of point-counterpoint setups, where two people with opposite sides would come on.” PeopleTwoShowsAmericaSidesInterestingHappeningsProgramOppositesDebateEditingDelayMost InterestingInteresting ThingsRatingSetupsAghast Author:Morgan Neville
“PhotoShop is a program I use all the time with my 2D stuff. And that's an extraordinary program - you really can do anything there, and I've never hit my head on the ceiling.

“I'm less interested in uniqueness than in goodness. I see so many concerts where the program notes are more interesting than the music. I remember talking to one composer who went through the most complicated mathematical algorithm to generate some material from scratch. It took weeks and weeks, and he came up with a C major chord. For me, honesty is more interesting than originality.” RememberInterestingTalkingWeekHonestyMaterialsGoodnessMajorsProgramNotesComplicatedMathematicalConcertsComposerOriginalityUniquenessScratchesChordsAlgorithms Author:Anna Meredith
“What will be interesting to see is whether or not we see from the [Donald Trump] administration initiatives on higher education for this work force, because if those kinds of training opportunities are not provided, then I do think this program begins to look like a defensive holding action, a rear-guard action, buying time for workers who might not otherwise find positions in the 21st century.” IfsThinkingLooksKindMightActionOpportunityForceInterestingCenturyPositionTrumpHigherTrainingProgramWorkersAdministrationBuyingInitiative21st CenturyHigher Education Author:Judy Woodruff
