I've been writing Sci-Fi and Fantasy for a few years now. Some of my primary influences are:
- Philip K Dick, Isaac Asimov, Ayn Rand, George Orwell, Tolkien, Franz Kafka, Albert Camus, Samuel Butler, H.P. Lovecraft, Kazuo Ishiguro
In the factual realm I lean heavily on Nassim Taleb, David Deutsch, Max Tegmark, Stuart Russell, Nick Bostrom.
I welcome feedback and ideas. I am interested in epic sagas, philosophical undertones and futurism.
