Comic books were the first things I read with a lot of enthusiasm. After that I got into H. G. Welles, Jules Verne and science fiction. I probably didn't understand Vernes and Welles that much and whatever satiric intent Welles had would have flown right over my head but I liked them at the time. I read a lot of juvenile fiction . . . Tom Swift . . . the Mushroom Planet books. There was some Christian series of novels about a boy who wasn't allowed to go the movies. That's all I remember about them, that the author didn't think young people should be going to the movies. I read books about dinosaurs. And guns for some reason. I knew a lot more about guns in elementary school than I do now.
