We all know Star Trek and Star Wars, but my interest in science fiction really took off with franchises like Halo, Dawn of War, and Mass Effect. These are three of the richest science fiction universes I've ever encountered and although I do love to read fiction - especially science fiction - I make no apologies for drawing inspiration for my own books from video games. Who says great stories can only take the form of words on a screen or page? I'm not a full-time author, though – few of us are that lucky - I have a five-day-a-week job which pays the bills, including the book-related bills. I enjoy writing and science fiction as a hobby and an escape, and the result of unwinding at the end of every day, and over every weekend, are the stories I write.
