Why I Write About Elves
[Fantasy] shows us reality in disguise, then allows us to unmask it. – Terry Brooks
Credence Function
I’ve never been keen on stories that just try to present ‘wow’ ideas—the equivalent of movie productions that rely on stunts and explosions to hold the attention. The question is not whether we can think of something radical or extreme but whether we can discover some sufficient reason for updating our credence function. – Nick Bostrom
Man's Best Friend
Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside, it’s too dark to read. – Groucho Marx
Danse Macabre
Fantasy fiction is essentially about the concept of power; great fantasy fiction is about people who find it at great cost or lose it tragically; mediocre fantasy fiction is about people who have it and never lose it but simply wield it.
― Stephen King
