My writing tends to start with fantastical premises but uses them to tell character-driven stories. The Mooreeffoc Effect, for example, follows characters who make contact with alternate universe versions of themselves and, through their continued communication with them, begin to question the beliefs they've built their self-conceptions on and what they want from their lives.
I tend to find myself drawn to stories with metafiction elements and pairs of characters with complicated relationships; the kind who can hurt each other like no one else but would still choose each other over anything else.
