I play BattleTech a lot, and love sci-fi, fantasy, and really love sci-fi/fantasy...:-) One of my favorite authors is David Weber, and I have loved to read Arthur C. Clarke in the past. I have read the entire Robots through Empire through Foundation series, except the stuff written in the last few years by some new dudes, and really liked it.

I am also a MAJOR fan of Timothy Zahn's books and loved the old Bantaam Star Wars books. The new Del-Rey books I find...well...I just don't like them that much. I don't like the atmosphere.

As for me, I am publishing here a set of stories I've written placed in a universe of my own making. Collectively, they are called simply "Civilizations". Numerous great civilizations roam through space, and thousands of years ago, they came to earth, Terra, and influenced the creation of the greatest civilizations of the ancient world. And then they left. We entered space, lived through three massive Interstellar Wars, and met them in 3117. The 3300s played host to the Fourth Interstellar War, a war that ravaged every Civilized Sector and many Wild Sectors. Now in 3424, after a century of peace, the old cold war between the older nations continues.

I have had a lot of fun researching for these stories. Considering that every civilization out there is based on something we have on earth, it takes time figure stuff out...hehehe

I also have some of my other stuff on fanfiction.net.
