Hello there! I'm Ricardo, a hobbyist writer from New Jersey. I write science fiction stories in my spare time.
A good deal of what you'll find here includes elements of the technological, and the influence of technology on society & culture. My love for these themes stems from watching shows like Star Trek and Stargate as a kid. Sci-Fi is easily my favorite genre.
For the most part, I try to keep it "Soft Sci-Fi" as much as possible, which means that the science is plausible and the tech is somewhat feasible, but I don't go into details or explain the mechanics behind it all. My goal is to tell a story, not teach a physics class.
If you like what you read here, please don't hesitate to leave your feedback. It helps me grow as a writer.
As of 2024, my list of favorite books include:
‣ Andy Weir's "Project Hail Mary"
‣ Jeanne DuPrau's The City of Ember series
‣ Elan Mastai's "All Our Wrong Todays"
‣ James S. A. Corey's The Expanse series
‣ Orson Scott Card's "Ender's Game"
