As I’ve admitted before, I’m originally from the planet Zog and have lived in Hong Kong since my spaceship crashed on Earth in 2006. I then went incognito as a science-fiction writer.
While waiting for my spaceship to be repaired, I've self-published five books and one collection of short stories, Cosmic Portal, on Amazon. One story, “Killing Hitler,” was accepted by the Hong Kong Writers Circle for publication in the Q4 (Dec 2023) issue of their magazine, The Apostrophe.

And I contributed two short stories, "My Life Sucks" and "We, Robots,” to the 2024 SciFi Anthology: The Science Fiction Novelists, published by the Science Fiction Novelists Facebook Group. I also contributed a story, “The Letter,” for their 2025 Anthology, which was published last month.
Currently, I’m writing about a Martian living in Hong Kong. I just finished a 41K-word story draft, which I plan to publish before I return home to Zog. Now, if my mechanic can just get the parts from Zog, I’d be on my way.
Also, if anyone located in Hong Kong would like to meet for coffee, please reach out to me.

Maurice Vaughan I follow the three main rules of writing: 1/ edit, 2/ edit, and 3/ edit. To me, writing is like planting a seed. You water and take care of it, then watch it grow into a tree.
