I have written 20 books over a 35 year period. Also, since 1998 I have gone on cycles of working a couple of years and then taking lots of time off. I do most of my writing during the time off periods.

Re: health: I try to walk or hike five to 8 hours a week, if I have time. I am mostly a vegetarian. I try to get a lot of sleep. Also, my Dad is 100 and in good health so maybe I got lucky in the gene pool.

My hobbies are cooking, reading (I have been going nuts with Chinese sci-fi recently), and hiking.

Re patents: there is no way I would try for a patent on my own. My patents were all team efforts with the help of highly skilled corporate patent lawyers.
