So, let me explain.
Since I was a kid, I was obsessed with computers, technology, and books. Science fiction books, palpable technologies with surreal events, were my favorite addiction. I grew up drinking from this source, dreaming of writing my own stories one day. But growing up on the periphery I quickly came to understand it was no more than a pipe dream, especially in Brazil. So, I was thrown into the nearest lane, going from technical support to software engineer.
Years flew by, and in the rush of day-to-day life, I ended up forgetting the essence that propelled me down this path. Goals, projects, codes, stress… blah, blah, blah. You know the drill. However, after several (miracle) therapy sessions, I decided it was time to take a break from the command prompt and dive into Word. And, after many, many months, liters of coffee, a herniated disc, and a hefty dosage of ibuprofen, voilà, a book was born!
Was it hard to edit, review, edit, review ad infinitum? Very much. But, you know what? I loved every minute. The challenge was not writing at all, but stopping it. I liked it so much that the book was born in both English and Portuguese.
Long story short, I just wanted to say that no matter how long you have been running from your passion, it’s always the right time to dive headfirst into it. If you have the chance, don’t hesitate. And therapy helps.
If you’re bored and want to check it out, it’s called [Ghost Trigger](https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Trigger-Glitch-Factories-English-ebook/dp/B0C6R7GPFZ), a cyberpunk story that speaks about work dehumanization, communities vs corporations and kicking the corporative ass.
It will cost you a beer, and about three hours of your life. I promise you it’s better than the last Disney movie you watched.
