<p>Sev Romero is a writer based on Ngunnawal Country (Canberra, Australia). Sev enjoys writing dark speculative fiction novels and short stories that hold a mirror up to today’s world. These stories touch on genuine issues, feature complex characters, have plenty of political intrigue, and include splashes of dark humour.</p>
<p>Sev’s inspirations are wide and many, and include George Orwell, Kurt Vonnegut, James S. A. Corey, N. K. Jemisin, Cormac McCarthy, and Margaret Atwood. As a child of the 80’s and 90’s Sev has also been heavily influenced by film, where he grew a love for dark uncompromising science fiction (Aliens, The Terminator, Robocop), horror (Halloween, Evil Dead, The Thing) and everything else in between (Akira, Ichi The Killer, Mad Max).</p>
<p>Sev is also a strong advocate for equality and the environment, and these themes often feature in his work.</p>
<p>When not writing, Sev enjoys spending time with his 3 children, cheering on his football team, discussing hip hop, and unwinding with the odd video game.</p>
