Ive never written a movie, Im not in the movie business. I go out to L.A. and Im like everyone else wandering around in a daze hoping I see movie stars. I write the novels that the movies are based on, and that feels like enough of a job for me. – Justin Cronin
And I grew up on a steady diet of science fiction, especially apocalyptic and postapocalyptic fiction. – 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
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
