My first three manuscripts were epic fantasy - like high fantasy - and then the fourth one was a historical fantasy about Mozart as a child. I still have a soft spot for that one!

Marie Lu

I have always regarded historical fiction and fantasy as sisters under the skin, two genres separated at birth.

George R. R. Martin

I'm particularly fond of sci-fi and fantasy genres.

Roop Durgapal

I love writing romance, along with science fiction and fantasy - and my books usually meld all three to some degree.

Marjorie Liu

I think the combination of action and the combination of comedy are two really, really good genres to meld together.

Neal H. Moritz

I like going back in time and writing historical fantasy. I use some real historical characters as a background to give depth to the fantasy. And I throw my fictional characters into the midst of this, and, so far, it has turned out interesting.

As someone who has been playing 'Final Fantasy' since before I could walk on two legs, I was particularly disgusted by 'Final Fantasy XIII-2's soundtrack.

Jason Schreier

I love historical movies. I want to make a violent medieval epic.

Eli Roth

I love horror, fantasy and sci-fi. Those are my genres of love and devotion.

Bryan Fuller

I really love fantasy. I have to say it is my favourite genre to read and one of the genres I love the most to write.

Cassandra Clare

I love anything that's mythical, and fantasy is one of my favourite genres.

Amyra Dastur

I think readers nowadays are happy to have genres blurred. We're seeing that on screen too: The Pirates of the Caribbean mashes up history and fantasy, Cowboys and Aliens mixes the Western and the Science Fiction genres.

Colette Freedman

There's more private security in the United States than there are publicly funded forces, like police. What you don't want is a meld of government and commerce - you really want to keep those two things separate - because once you have that meld, you've got megacorruption, and you have no third force to whom you can say this stuff is poisoning our kids.

Margaret Atwood

The two genres that probably take the most flack in literature - they are young adult and romance right now. I don't think it's a coincidence that these are genres that provide places for women to express desire and love for adventure, for the opportunity to be placed to heroic roles.

Leigh Bardugo

I always try to get games of different genres. This is the reason Postal is a comedy, and Far Cry is a real, pure action movie - like Die Hard on an island - and In The Name Of The King: A Dungeon Siege Tale was my opportunity to do my epic, Braveheart, Lord Of The Rings, Gladiator movie. I try not to repeat myself in genres too much.
