Hello - I am Vilim Vilimovich. I am here because I wish to remake myself from what I once was (academic) to what I want to be (novelist). My stories fall into three categories, essentially: futuristic fantasies about how the world/civilization might develop; stories that grow out of my study of family history; and what is called alternate histories, which focus on how history might have been different if x,y, or z had/had not happened. Writing fiction is still very much something I want to do, and I have earned no money at all doing it. I am complete babe in the woods, so I come to all of you to give me your wisdom.

I'm Native American - - - ‘nuff said? I know, I know, many friends tell me to write some from the NA perspective--Don Coldsmith does (more pre-western though)---and my alternate history involves the early settling of the US---but I just don't enjoy writing them much, probably because I don't read them much--I don't write category romance either, though many of my stories contain romance--but then so does life.
I've always liked the imagery... the silent emptiness. Of course, not being an American, I'm rather distanced from it all; other issues, other atrocities, are closer to my heart (in the sense that I think about and am affected by, rather than feeling affinity with them).
