The idea to write a novel came to me in 2013 when I was working at TU Dortmund as an early-stage researcher. Being a huge fan of Tolkien, Le Guin, Philip K. Dick and German-Scandinavian mythology, I came to form my own vision of a fictional world I would like to be part of. Informational technologies and quantum mechanics have hugely influenced me and my story, as the reader can see in all the terminology and mechanics of the book. Right now I am working on the second episode, which is a direct continuation of the first book and involves Aneralt, Ernärt, Kronos, Enigam (a.k.a Eotta), Tiamand, as well as some hidden and mythical characters.

In the screenshot, I used the strategy called “the best Read more of this blog post »

“All these bad experiences that we go through, they don't just disappear. We carry them our whole life trying to forget, escaping in habits, addictions, hate, toxic relationships. But what we don't know is that by doing so we let them stay alive. We water them like withered flowers and we hang onto them to justify our mistakes and failures.”
