Hello everyone...
I am an aspiring Sci Fi author, and Neuroscience Researcher/Student. I've written lots of behavioural/POV analysis on altered states of consciousness in the past; including phenomenology of anaesthetic dissociation, lucid dreaming, temporal lobe seizure/sleep parasomnia and psychedelic hallucination. Over time I decided to "jump rails" as it were; and write a fiction manuscript of my own. That has been the past 12 months of my life, while my supervisor has increasingly despaired about my deteriorating focus
Well, that's too late to take back. I can only hope the finished product (120,000 words; my fourth draft) has made the sacrifice worth it. I'm planning to publish on Amazon/Kindle soon.
I've come here, in the hopes of taking my writing to the next level. I feel like I've hit something of a plateau; and that there are invisible weaknesses to my work that I am constantly banging my head against the wall to see, and simply not seeing.
That's the short version
I'll be sticking around till I hit the magic 50 post mark, and then we can all find out whether this project of mine has been worth all the hours!
