My personal feeling about science fiction is that it's always in some way connected to the real world, to our everyday world.

If you're writing fantasy or science fiction, it's really hard to do if you don't know a lot, at least in a basic way, about how the real world works.

Real life doesn't grant us many of the more than useful possibilities people can come out with in fiction.

But in fantasy, you can make a complete break, and you can put people in a situation where they are confronted with things that they would not confront in the real world.

It may be far in the future, but there's some kind of logical way to get from where we are to where the science fiction is.

I'm interested in the real world.
