M. R. Damova writes hard science fiction about people trying not to die in space, and occasionally succeeding.
A millennial who grew up reading everything from Taoist philosophy to Dune's endless sand, which explains both his existential dread and his love for hostile planets.
His debut novel MEAD, cyberpunk noir novel, was published by EdiKiT in 2024 but is no longer available due to contract expiration (it'll be out with a brand new cover soon). REMISSION is his first indie release: a survival novella about a doctor, a deadly planet, and the very bad decisions that brought them together.
He took a professional course in literary editing, which means he can tell you exactly why your manuscript doesn't work while his own sits unfinished. He also lived in Ireland for a bit, where he learned top-level self-pity that worsened his writer's imposter syndrome. When not writing, he practices professional-grade procrastination.
He currently lives on Earth, where he divides his time between writing, reading, and wondering if Matt Damon is available for adaptations.
