I like to write far future speculative fiction with a twinge of metaphysics. I have finished my first novel and am looking for representation. Also, just finished a novella and wait patiently as it sits in the electronic slush at tor.com. Authors who have inspired me include: Jack Vance, Alfred Bester, Douglas Adams, Clark Ashton Smith, and a lot of others. And yes, people in the far future speak the king's english. Why wouldn't they? Every one will be smarter in the future.
