EDIT: All right guys, we're closing up shop. Thanks for all your questions today, and be sure to enjoy Starforge when it drops tomorrow! The trilogy is complete at last!

Who am I? Hello again Reddit! As you may have gathered from the title, I am Max Florschutz, author of Science-Fiction and Fantasy novels, here to celebrate tomorrow's launch of the ninth book to bear my name and the conclusion to an epic Sci-Fi trilogy: Starforge! I'll be answering questions until about 5 PM MST!

That's the short of it. The long of it? Well, I'm still an author of Science-Fiction and Fantasy, so that doesn't change. But I'll give you a bit more backstory. My first book, One Drink, was published in 2013, making next year the ten-year anniversary of my career as an author. It was followed a short time later by a sequel, Dead Silver, and from there by numerous other books, including Colony, the first book in the UNSEC Space Trilogy that will reach its titanic conclusion when Starforge releases tomorrow!

I'm also known for running Being a Better Writer, a weekly writing guide answering all sorts of common questions about writing (and if you ask a common writing how-to question, I may just drop you a link) each Monday on my website. You can also check out that site (Unusual Things) for writing samples, free stuff, and preview chapters of each of my books.

My Proof: Obligatory website link!

Full list of books so far, in publication order:

• One Drink

• Dead Silver

• Unusual Events: A "Short" Story Collection

Again, I'll be answering questions until about 5 PM. So bring 'em on!
