I'm not planning a kickstarter game. And I'm not really a game designer.

While writing a novel I almost completely stop reading books in the same sub-genre for the duration.

We are, after all, homo economicus.

I have time to write 1-2 novels per year, and get roughly novel-sized ideas every month. I have to perform triage on my own writing impulses.

I wrote two million words of crap. Maybe I'm just a slow learner .

Fiction is about human beings, first and foremost. (It's not impossible to write fiction with no human protagonists, but it's very hard to keep the reader interested ...)

For a sampler, you could try my short story collection "Wireless". Which contains one novella that scooped a Locus award, and one that won a Hugo, and covers a range of different styles.
