I always turn in my books on time, so you can always count on a book coming out when it's supposed to.
Each book will have a lot of cliffhangers, because I like that.
Dune is the bestselling science fiction book of all time. It's something you really need to read in your lifetime. If you're going to read The Lord of the Rings, which everyone should, then you have to read Dune, too.
If I could go back in time and tell my younger self that eventually that I'd become very successful writing Dune books after Frank Herbert's death, I would have laughed myself silly, I think, at how strange that prospect would be.
I mean, I wasn't stupid. I knew we'd make money and sell a lot of Dune books.
I wanted the feel in these books to be like an epic fantasy, with kings, queens, dukes and court politics, but of course like what I was explaining before, about making the science make sense, you have to make the politics make sense, too.
In a certain sense, this guy - who is one of the most evil people in the book - he's not really that bad at running the show, because he knows what he's doing, he's smart and he's got the big picture in mind. He's like the Godfather.

There's no new news here. This is the same thing they've been saying for months. Where's the beef?
We played hard the whole game. We gave a great effort. That's all we can ask.
Maybe it is a workaround, I don't really know. This is such old news there's nothing to comment on.
We could have filled up a couple of airplanes. Everyone wanted to be here.
From the very first point we played well.
She brought the best out of everybody in this department and everybody she touched.
