C. E. Dorsett
I spent many years exploring Speculative Fiction, Supernatural Horror, and Wuxia (Chinese Martial Arts Fantasy), melding them into a unique blend of Space Opera in the spirit of masters of the pulp era.
My goal is to bring back the spirit of mystery and adventure of the classics in a fresh way. My books; Liquid Sky, Fate's Harrow, and Shine Like Thunder, reverberate with the same spirit of the pulps. To promote others who preserve the heart of Speculative Fiction, I started the dashPunk blog and Project: Shadow Informant Podcast.
Quickly, I discovered Anne McCaffrey, H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and Clive Barker. My mind filled with images of dragons and eldritch creatures of the night.
After I read J. R. R. Tolkien, Robert Jordan, and Terry Brooks, I could no longer contain my imagination. I had written stories since I was 6, but now at the age of 17 I embarked on my first novel, an Epic Fantasy named, Empire. Then I read Anne Rice and Christopher Golden, and wrote my second and third novels, Behind this Darkness and Predator's Pray.
I didn't find my voice until I discovered Wang Du Lu, Louis Cha, Jin Yong, and Hideyuki Kikuchi. They supplied the missing element to my fiction, and I wrote Liquid Sky.
Inspired by H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and Frank Herbert, I tell tales of mystery, myth, and magic.

My Sister gave me copies of Poe and Twain when I was in the third grade. I couldn't believe that books could do that to a person. I was transported away into lives so different from my own.Quickly, I discovered Anne McCaffrey, H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and Clive Barker.
