About Me
I am a twenty-three year old Master of Physics graduate with a passion for writing science fiction. Inspired by my studies, I want to share the majesty and awe that science offers, but with the ease-of-access of fiction and prose. Having spent years writing stuffy and constraining lab reports, I am now trying to get my first novel published, while seeking representation from an agent.
Type of Writer
Science fiction and fantasy predominantly
Writing Style
I try to fuse various styles together. Most influential are Isaac Asivmov, Phillip K. Dick, Ayn Rand and Iain M. Banks.
Interests
