Marcio AraujoIn April of 2023, everything changed. I had two strokes that left the entire left side of my body paralyzed, and just like that, my life cracked wide open. Work? Gone. My daily rhythm? Obliterated. Depression came barreling in.But somehow, writing styed.At first, it was just survival. Scribbling thoughts, dumping feelings, trying to make sense of a life that no longer made sense. No grand breakthroughs. No motivational poster moments. Just words. Raw, messy, honest words. One after another. Day after day.And then something shifted.Those words turned into scenes. The scenes became stories. And slowly, I realized I wasn't just coping anymore. I was creating. I was rebuilding.Before all of this, I was always a sci-fi nerd. Big fan of wild adventures, intense action, and stories that know how to punch you in the heart just as much as the face. I never stopped loving that stuff. So now, I write science fiction because I like asking "what if?" and then pushing that question until something breaks usually a character, a system, or both. Shattered Oaths is my debut, and yeah, it's cyberpunk as hell: neural implants, collapsing regimes, loyalty glitches, all that good stuff. But under the tech and the action, it's really about identity, control, and what happens when someone decides not to follow the script.I'm not here to write clean heroes or easy futures. I like things messy, layered, human.This site is where I share updates, bonus content, and probably too much about the next book before it's even finished. If you're into morally gray characters, brutal worlds, and rebellion that burns from the inside out you're in the right place.Becoming a writer was never part of the plan. Life rerouted me, hard. But now that I'm here? I'm all in. And I'm not going anywhere. Read More Read Less
