Hello everyone,
my name is Bjorn and I am a science fiction writer from Germany. I have been writing for about eight years by now and over time it has changed from a very occasional relaxation thing to a serious hobby. As I read almost exclusively in English, I also write in English, as it feels more natural to me this way.
My current project is now rapidly approaching a finished first draft, although being a pantser, there is still much work to be done. As for genre, I would call it Sci-Fi with heavy cyberpunk elements, although I'm reluctant to call it full-fledged cyberpunk, as it misses some genre conventions (is there such thing as positive cyberpunk?).
I decided to join this forum to read some other viewpoints and maybe gain some input that will help me with reworking my first draft. Additionally I would enjoy beta reading or exchanging texts with other writers, maybe once mine aren't a technobabble-filled, chaotic mess anymore (ha, as if that'll ever happen).
When I'm not writing, I care for my hydroponic garden, read or play board and video games. Down the line I'd like to maybe try video game writing for smaller projects, such as community-driven mods.
Glad to meet all of you,
The Technomancer (which even though I fix his computer at least once a week, my boss stubbornly refuses to make my official job title)
