My Blog will cover a wide range of topics that will all tie back to the inspiration for my writing. It will cover the experiences and questions that have fueled my imagination, as well as topics in the current zeitgeist that relate to science fiction, space travel, time, reality, and human character.
As of June 2025, we find ourselves immersed in conversations about large language models (LLMs), evolving AI algorithms, and the looming potential of quantum computing surpassing traditional computational capacity. The trajectory is clear: we’re heading toward a future of seemingly limitless AI growth.
Over time, our experiences in life add up and contribute to who we are. The longer we live, the more we add to that vault of knowledge, perception, and should we allow it, character.
One of the experiences in my life that I often think on, dream about, and rely on for inspiration, was my time as the Drum Major of the University of Michigan Marching Band.
I remember being a child of the 1980’s and I marveled at NASA and all their incredible feats from regular trips to the moon, to the space shuttle, and the construction of the international space station. To me it felt like we were on a trajectory to work and live in outer space as a society, and this would be something I would naturally study and get a career in the future.
So how did Eartherians Reach Book 1 come to be? While the writing and editing process took about three and a half years until publishing, the journey started decades before that.
So where do the scenes and imagery of the Eartherians Series come from? As I mentioned in the first Blog Entry, I didn’t start to feel true inspiration and ideation until I started typing the story itself. From there, I found my mind connecting all sorts of experiences, stories, and even dreams I have had during my life.
