When I first sat down to write Galaxy’s Child, I wasn’t just writing a science fiction novel, I was stepping into something much more personal. I had carried this story with me for decades, always in the background, always waiting for the right moment. What I didn’t expect was how much the process of finally… Continue reading What I Learned About Myself Writing Galaxy’s Child

Les personnages secondaires comptent tout autant
Toute histoire a besoin d’un personnage principal et dans Galaxy’s Child, ce rôle revient à Philip Anders. Mais soyons honnêtes, aucun protagoniste ne devient ce qu’il est par lui-même. Derrière chaque grand héros se trouve un groupe de personnes qui le façonnent, qui le remet en question et parfois, qui le fais avancer lorsqu’il perd… Continue reading Les personnages secondaires comptent tout autant
The Supporting Cast Matters Too
Every story needs a main character, and in Galaxy’s Child, that role belongs to Philip Anders. But let’s be honest, no protagonist becomes who they are in isolation. Behind every great journey is a group of people who shape it, challenge it, and sometimes carry it forward when the hero can’t. That’s where the supporting… Continue reading The Supporting Cast Matters Too
Qu’est-ce qui fait un bon protagoniste de science-fiction?
Quand on pense à un héros de science-fiction, on imagine souvent quelqu’un qui a toutes les réponses. Un génie sans faille, qui sait toujours quoi faire. Un leader né, confiant et solide. Et oui, ce genre de personnage peut être divertissant. Mais pour moi, ce ne sont jamais ceux-là qui me marquent vraiment. Les personnages… Continue reading Qu’est-ce qui fait un bon protagoniste de science-fiction?
My Wednesday Blog.
When most people think of a science fiction hero, I suspect they picture someone with all the answers. A flawless genius who always knows what to do. A born leader with unshakable confidence. And sure, that kind of character can be fun to watch. But for me, they’ve never been the ones I remember. The… Continue reading My Wednesday Blog.
Why Emotional Stakes Matter More Than Explosions
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good space battle. Whether it be in Star Trek, Star Wars, Stargate, BSG or any other great Sci-Fi franchise, the roar of engines, the flash of weapons fire, the adrenaline, It is part of what makes science fiction such a thrill. But for me, the real impact of… Continue reading Why Emotional Stakes Matter More Than Explosions
Mon Casting Galactique : Construire des Personnages Mémorables
Chaque grand univers de science-fiction commence par l’imagination… mais ce sont les personnages qui le rendent inoubliable. Lorsque j’ai commencé à construire l’univers de Galaxy’s Child, je savais que je voulais bien plus que de la technologie et de la théorie. Je voulais des personnages capables d’évoluer, de grandir à travers leurs missions, leurs relations,… Continue reading Mon Casting Galactique : Construire des Personnages Mémorables
Casting My Galaxy: Building Characters from the Ground Up
Every great sci-fi world starts with imagination… but it’s the characters that make it unforgettable. When I began building the universe of Galaxy’s Child, I knew I wanted more than tech and theory. I wanted characters who could grow, who could evolve across missions, relationships, losses, and triumphs. World-building is one thing. But character-building is… Continue reading Casting My Galaxy: Building Characters from the Ground Up
