📌 Philos Fablewright: Author of Thought-Provoking Fiction & Philosophical Novels Thank you for getting this far. I’m grateful to have sparked your curiosity. I write thought-provoking fiction that blends philosophy, history, science, and self-discovery—because, let’s be honest, none of us have all the answers. Life is unpredictable, messy, and doesn’t come with a manual. But that’s what makes it interesting. In Curious, Edward loses everything—his career, his marriage, his sense of self—and is forced to start over. Along the way, he stumbles through humor, heartbreak, and unexpected wisdom, discovering more about life than he ever imagined. This is a heartfelt tale drawn from real life. A novel that will touch your heart, make you laugh, and leave you thinking. 📝 Why a Pseudonym Because Curious was never about me—it’s about the questions that challenge our thinking and deepen our understanding. This book is a fusion of ideas and stories I wanted to share, not as a statement, but as part of a conversation with you. I simply invite you, the reader, to embark on this journey of curiosity and discovery with me. 📚 A Glimpse into My Thinking This is not an excerpt from Curious but rather a reflection of the ideas that shape my writing and perspective on life. "We are parachuted into existence, an unknown place and time. Some of us are lucky—we have a happy childhood. We are programmed by the narrative of our day, molded by social conditioning, and left to navigate our own paths. And mostly, we succeed—we work, we build, we replicate. That’s our evolutionary task. But evolution didn’t expect us to live this long, to question why we’re here, or to wonder what comes next. The real question isn’t why we’re here, but where we’re going. And wherever that may be, we seem to be in a hurry. In just 3.5 generations, humankind has raced from steam power to artificial intelligence. Yet, the human-machine—our intricate mix of hardware and software—doesn’t always function as expected. Annoyingly, there is no user manual to explain this." 🌍 About Me I am a storyteller. Stories are how we make sense of the world—how we share ideas, inspire change, and connect with others. The best leaders in business and innovation are storytellers at heart, translating complex ideas into narratives that move people to action. My background in science, design, and business has shaped the way I approach storytelling—blending analytical thinking with creative exploration. I’ve lived and worked across Europe, Japan, and Australia, navigating careers that span medical technology, consumer goods, and leadership. From pioneering innovations in science and design to building businesses and shaping cultures, I’ve worked alongside some of the brightest minds, where ideas and storytelling go hand in hand. Curiosity drives everything I do—both in life and on the page. My writing explores the contradictions of being human, inviting readers to think, laugh, and question. Because, in the end, we are all just trying to make sense of this beautifully chaotic existence. If you enjoy philosophical fiction that lingers long after the last page—books like The Alchemist, The Midnight Library, and Man’s Search for Meaning—then I invite you to explore Curious. It’s not just a book; it’s a journey. And I’d love for you to be part of it. Please, be curious. 🔍📚
