“I was tempted to type in “How do I call my uncle an idiot but make it sound constructive?” But I didn’t think AI would have the plethora of curse words I required.”
Benjamin Stevenson, Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect

John Scalzi
“I expected the members of Earth’s leading society of villains to be smarter,” I said. “I don’t know why.” “They’re smarter in movies and books.” “They would have to be, wouldn’t they?” Morrison said. “In the real world, they can be what people like them usually are: a bunch of dudes born into money who used that money to take advantage of other people to make even more money. It works great until they start believing that being rich makes them smart, and then they get in trouble.”
John Scalzi, Starter Villain

“You want the difference between pulp and literature? Between a real writer and just a writer? I’ll tell you: adverbs.” “Adverbs?” “You use too many of them,” he said, derisively.”
Benjamin Stevenson, Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect

Alice Hoffman
“The author P. L. Travers once said, ‘A writer is, after all, only half his book. The other half is the reader and from the reader the writer learns.”
Alice Hoffman, The Bookstore Sisters

John Scalzi
“Has he?” “Passed on?” “Yes.” “He was dead when he arrived here,” Chesterfield said. “Do you expect that condition to change?” “It would be unusual if it did.”
John Scalzi, Starter Villain
