About Me

Francis Morrow

Speculative Fiction Author

Francis Morrow is the author of three novels, THE DECEASED (2019), COLLISION (2020), THE KING’S AUTOMATA (2021), and one collection of short stories, RIOT TOUR (2020). Before embarking on his writing journey, he worked in the energy industry and technology investment. In his stories, he aims to humanise high concepts and make dystopian scenarios a little more fun. Themes that run through his work include: the rise of the tech industry, climate change, artificial intelligence and machine ethics. He never knowingly misses an opportunity to insert a lengthy monologue and/or a bit of the old ultraviolence. His influences include the works of Philip K. Dick and Ray Bradbury, and the movies of Paul Verhoeven and Ridley Scott. He lives in London, England.
