A E Van Vogt quotes
" All this on a salary that never increased, and, after deductions came to $81 a month - those were the days right after the Depression. "

A E Van Vogt
" As a craftsman, I made my living at writing from the moment I crossed the line at age 20, and sold my first story to True Story Magazine. "

A E Van Vogt
" At that time, I was really surprised, even though the war was going on, I'm surprised that there weren't enough people out there who were working on this kind of story to supply the needs of one magazine. Today, the number of writers who would be available to fill those gaps are legion. "

A E Van Vogt
" But, somewhere in there, I did have the thought that this really fits in with my thinking about what I wanted to do; with what has to be done by a writer in order to stay alive as a writer. "

A E Van Vogt
" Chum was a British boy's weekly which, at the end of the year was bound into a single huge book; and the following Christmas parents bought it as Christmas presents for male children. "

A E Van Vogt
" I did not go along with the new theories that Hubbard was offering. They had a religious aspect and I paid no attention to them. "

A E Van Vogt
" I don't recall having any self-awareness about the intricacy of my stories. "

A E Van Vogt
" I figure that that has a ten year cycle. At the end of that ten years, I began to get worried that I would run into what is known as the writer's block, the feeling of not being able to do these things. "

A E Van Vogt
" I first read science fiction in the old British Chum annual when I was about 12 years old. "

A E Van Vogt
" I had casually rented an apartment that cost $75 a month because I expected my writing to pay my way. "

A E Van Vogt
" I married E. Mayne Hull in May. "

A E Van Vogt
" I was merely pleased with some of the ideas - but never thought of them as especially intricate. "

A E Van Vogt
" I wrote what interested me; and my method of working out my story through the dream process probably underlay the wheels within wheels aspect. "

A E Van Vogt
" Ideas came to me in the night when I would wake up, anxiously thinking about a story problem that was not resolving. "

A E Van Vogt
" In a sense, there's a great truth to that, but, also I was a great reader. "
