The future that I will not live to see is the one my children will live in. Thats my immortality. And I shouldnt try to mortgage theirs for my benefit. – Justin Cronin
And I grew up on a steady diet of science fiction, especially apocalyptic and postapocalyptic fiction. – Justin Cronin
My theory of characterization is basically this: Put some dirt on a hero, and put some sunshine on the villain, one brush stroke of beauty on the villain. – Justin Cronin
One thing that worried me was how writers get categorized and so they end up having to write the same kind of book again and again. That is fine if it is what you want to do, but I would rather be locked in the trunk of my car with a weasel than write the same book every three years until I die. – Justin Cronin
