Speculative Futures

I love many things about writing, not least the god complex. Thinking about possible futures is always engaging and challenging. Speculating about what the social contract would look like in the mid to distant future. How would society evolve, or devolve, in that period? What cutting-edge technology of today will remain or develop? Will technology alter the relationships we have with one another and ourselves? If so, how? Artefact Imperative was one such journey. When I was writing, I was excited each day to discover how the narrative was going to unfold. Believe it or not, I didn't know what was going to happen, or how it was going to end, until the end of each day, until finally the book was finished. I absolutely loved the experience of writing a speculative futures sci-fi thriller.
