Autor

My full name is Andrew Neil Milne. I was born in Arbroath, Scotland, on December 3rd, 1990, where I was raised by my parents together with my younger sister.I was, and am, bookish. Growing up, I was obsessed with the bleak intensity, the thorny moral dilemmas, and the interstellar scope of K.A. Applegate's 'Animorphs' books. From those, I graduated to authors like Frank Herbert; Dan Simmons; Ursula K. Le Guin; Alfred Bester; Samuel R. Delaney; Peter F. Hamilton; James S.A. Corey.I graduated from the University of Dundee in 2012 with a first-class M.A. in English and Politics. I found it easy and natural to string sentences together while writing essays, and I always had it in my head that I would write a novel one day (I made my first, unfinished attempt when I was 10).It wasn't until 2015, though, that I really took it upon myself to try writing fiction in earnest, in the spirit of 'if not now, when?' I wanted to pay forward the influence of the authors who inspired me growing up, and create heady, twisty, epic sci-fi stories that younger readers might get lost in for days and weeks.Now, in 2024, I present my best effort to do so.By day, I work as a Business Development Manager for a small consultancy; otherwise, when I'm not writing, I'm an avid hiker, always seeking out new long-distance routes all over the world. I'm a fan of prog metal, JRPGs, and 1970s kung-fu films. I write a lot about movies on Letterboxd - find me here: https://letterboxd.com/Thrash/I am not, by the way, in any way related to or affiliated with the estate of Alan Alexander ('A.A.') Milne, (1882 - 1956), the author of the 'Winnie-the-Pooh' series of children's books. If that's who you were looking for, and Google led you here by mistake... hang around anyway! Maybe I've written something you'd be interested in. Stranger things have happened.
