Ray Bradbury was a legendary American writer, mainly characterized by his ability to mix together the genres of science fiction, fantasy, and poetic realism. Among others, he brought up the topics of technology, censorship, imagination, love, and the struggle to stay human in a changing world through his writings. Bradbury held that the artist’s creativity must be fearless and joyful; curiosity rather than perfection should be the driving force. He encouraged many writers over the years to practice writing every day, to have unrestricted thinking, and to guard their imagination with their lives. His legacy is still a strong and uplifting reminder that it is stories that create and change civilizations.
