“In response to be asked about Boris Johnson becoming UK Prime Minister...
"I'm delighted. As the UK continues to plunge ever faster into a future akin to a dystopian novel I'll never run out of material to write more books. Although now that reality is more bizarre than fiction maybe plot-lines will need to be more ambitious.

“A really fun thing to do at 3 a.m. is to google 'the future of sleep' for a glimpse into the dystopian future awaiting us. Sheer horror will keep you awake, but at least you'll be prepared for the revolution when we are all transformed into mindless cyborgs who never sleep.”
