I am a sucker for all things related to the future. Robots, space travel, possible alien encounters. I want to know what could happen and many of my own story ideas revolve around those possibilities.
I think it is the artist's responsibility to lead people into hell. But I also believe, it's important to lead the way out.

The story of
R. William Ferguson
Storytelling has been a major part of my life. I have always loved telling stories, although I didn’t always know I would want to write them.
My passion for writing began when a friend told me I should look into screenwriting. I began studying screenwriting at the University of Utah and honing my craft. I worked with and interned for several talented screenwriters in Los Angeles, to whom I am grateful for their advice and direction. After spending more than a decade writing and working on screenplay, I decided to turn my focus towards writing novels. My writing focuses on:
- Possible future scenarios
- The psychology of character
- The ability to overcome or accept circumstances
