Introduce Yourself : Ata Etemadi (aka @a) aspiring writer, producer, space scientist, technologist by Ataollah Etemadi

Good morning everyone! Hope the shutdown is not effecting you. I am an aspiring writer living in Leander. The locals call it South Dallas. I write sci fi. For me writing science fiction is a kind of madness. The characters live in my head and take a life of their own. Then at some point they decide to escape on to the page and I am the one that is finally free. I write science fiction comedy or hard sci fi about privacy, swarms, viruses, love etc.. They are all shorts. One of these days I will build up the courage to submit a few to different competitions. Meanwhile I'd be happy to consult.
