From 36,000 feet in the air to the depths of future dystopian worlds, Nicholas Keating-Casbarro shares the incredible journey of creating his sci-fi franchise, Vitalerium – Descent into the Void. We explore how a career in the medical field led to writing a sci-fi series about humanity's complex future 700 years from now.
• Writing a sci-fi novel during countless flight hours while working in medical devices
• Creating Vitalerium – a sci-fi universe following a roughneck freelancer caught in a planetary conspiracy
• Building an extensive story bible with a 40-tab Excel document detailing planets, societies, and technologies
• Drawing inspiration from sci-fi classics like Dune and Isaac Asimov while maintaining a unique voice
• Using sleep paralysis experiences as source material for the book's dream sequences
• Creating character-driven sci-fi that appeals beyond traditional genre fans
• How metal music and dark electronic playlists shaped the cyberpunk atmosphere of the story
• Expanding beyond books into comics, with plans for animation, film, and video games
• Using sci-fi as a vehicle to explore potential pitfalls of technological advancement
• How the concept of balance and equilibrium serves as a philosophical foundation for the series
