Can you write Sci-Fi with Dennis E Taylor

12th April 2021 by Conor

Season 3, Episode 2

When I say I was excited and nervous for this interview, that doesn’t even begin to explain how I felt.

Dennis E Taylor is the author of science-fiction books Outland, The Singularity Trap and of course The Bobiverse Saga. He’s a two times New York Times Bestselling author, as well as winning the Audible Science-fiction Book of the Year in 2016.

Dennis and I spoke about his first career in computer programming, and how he got started at a time when “you got a job if you knew which way on a keyboard was up!” He goes on to tell me that after giving up on a book that wasn’t exactly top quality he declared “I got do better!” and do better he did! We also talked about the release and the massive success of his second novel We are Legion, which was so succesful, Dennis went on to quite his full time job. We also talk a bit about philosophy, the afterlife, snowboarding, and his research process. This was one of my favourite interviews so far, and I think you can hear me absolutely geek out over getting to speak to Dennis! Enjoy below!

Thanks once again to the amazing Dennis E Taylor for coming onto the show. It was a huge deal to me personally, as well as just a great interview for the podcast. He really inspired me to focus more on my writing! If Dennis can write a book in eight months than so can I! If you want to check out Dennis’ work, head over to his website, www.dennisetaylor.org. You can also follow him on Twitter! There are links to his amazing books below! If you’re thinking of getting a book, I highly recommend you buy the audiobook version to hear Ray Porter’s amazing narration!
