This highway leads to the shadowy tip of reality: you're on a through route to the land of the different, the bizarre, the unexplainable...Go as far as you like on this road. Its limits are only those of mind itself. Ladies and Gentlemen, you're entering the wondrous dimension of imagination. . . Next stop The Twilight Zone.

If you write beautifully, you write beautifully, that's all.
Rod Serling
Image
The ultimate obscenity is not caring, not doing something about what you feel, not feeling! Just drawing back and drawing in becoming narcissistic.
Rod Serling
Image
I'm afraid that if I started to ponder who I am and what I am, I might not like what I find.
Rod Serling
Image
You can be a hunchback and a dwarf and what-all. If you write beautifully, you can write beautifully.
Rod Serling
Image
I find dictating in the mass media particularly good because you're writing for voice anyway you're writing for people to say a line and, consequently, saying a line through a machine is quite a valid test for the validity of what you're saying.

Coming up with ideas is the easiest thing on earth. Putting them down is the hardest.

Whenever you write, whatever you write, never make the mistake of assuming the audience is any less intelligent than you are.

Ideas are born from what is smelled, heard, seen, experienced, felt, emotionalized.
