My name is Esther K. Bowen. I believe stories can make us feel more alive. They push our boundaries. They inspire us to change our world.
Science fiction has the ability to explore religion, politics, science, philosophy, freedom, tyranny, and the human mind and spirit.
I tell the kinds of stories I want to read. As a Christian, I would like to see more people like me reflected in the science fiction genre. I seek to add stories that include Christianity but are not allegory or End Times tales. I want everything that is good about science fiction: unforgettable characters, space travel, new planets, conflict, dystopia, technology. And I want Christians to see themselves in the story world.
My mission is to write excellent stories. Stories that are action-filled and that will keep you turning pages. Stories of strange worlds that feel real. Stories where not all characters are Christian, but stories that assume faith is as much a part of the future as war, hatred, and hope.
I am an Indiana native. I enjoy long walks, watching movies, and spending time with friends and family. I have been known to play D&D, eat too much ice cream, and sing songs from gothic musicals.
