edit data

I've written several books covering various genres, including international thrillers and memoirs.

I'm also the author of four science fiction books. Well, I'd not really call them science fiction as I think it may disappoint science fiction fans if they are expecting hard-core books in that genre. It's more of 'political science fiction'. It's a dystopian look at our future (environmentally) if we stay on our path. They involve space-travel and take a deep-dive into political psychology.

It's a journey into space and back to future Earth that spans across these books.

Follow me on Instagram, where I post regularly, including all the artworks created for the books.

Here are few of the artworks used in the books:

“Politicians prohibit progress.”
― Aithal

“In 2016, most of us voted out of hatred and fear: towards the opposite side—no matter which side you were on, the candidate—a Democrat or a Republican, towards immigrants, towards religion, or so many such misplaced fears. This cycle, why not vote for love and respect: towards America, towards others who are different, towards your family and elders, towards your neighbors, towards a community that practices different religions, and many such reasons.
After all, love trumps hate.
You have the power to vote out the current President and say:
You are fired!”
― Aithal, 2120
