You just stepped into my corner of the cosmos, where ancient myths meet orbital habitats and nothing invades on cue. In my stories, the "ancient aliens" are stranded travelers who need help, not humanity's planet or pyramids.
I write science fiction that treats tech like it matters, and legends like they might hide a field report. If that sounds like your kind of trouble, start wandering the series, sample a short story, and see where the drift carries you.
I am Will Span, a Virginia science fiction author who grew up watching John Glenn clear the launchpad while my dog Brownie snored beside me. Those early NASA mornings, plus a steady diet of Tom Swift, global myths, and Chariots of the Gods?, wired my brain for strange connections.
I spent my career in science and tech, then taught myself to write after retiring. Now I tell stories where ancient space travelers are the ones in trouble.
Curious how that happened?
My stories began in a dark living room at 4 a.m., watching NASA launches with my dog and a bowl of cereal. Science and tech always made sense to me, English class never really did.
After I retired, I finally let the old story ideas out, then spent ten stubborn years teaching myself how to shape them.
I build each book on plausible spacecraft, habitats, and history, then thread those details through connected series that reward readers who like to dig.
