There’s a moment in every writer’s life when words stop feeling like something we create and start feeling like something that moves through us.
That’s the magic of writing — and it’s why I do it.
Whether I’m working on The Human Trial or its sequel, I never quite feel like I’m in control. Characters begin to make their own decisions. Sentences seem to write themselves. And somehow, the story becomes a reflection of the very questions I’m asking in my own life about science, about faith, about what it means to be human.
Writing, for me, is not just about creating. It’s about discovering. Each story reveals something I didn’t know I was searching for… an answer, a truth, or simply a new way to see the world.
When people ask me why I write, I could give many answers: to inform, to inspire, to provoke thought. But the simplest and most honest one is this — I write to understand.
And when the pen is moving, I find that the world makes just a little more sense.
