The Tropical Eccentric

Darkly romantic Sci-fi and steampunk bilingual author from the Caribbean. Time-traveler, robot-obsessed and elegantly sarcastic since 1898.

Remembering Isaac Asimov.
I am grateful to the mind that taught us robots are more than machines. His stories lit the path I now walk with my own beloved robots who strive to find their souls residing among lines of code. I hope his wisdom guides us during these crucial advancements. 🤖🩷

Me (Today while drunk in Akihabara): This is great inspiration for a scene I’m working on! My MMC is actually from here!
Husband: Oh, cool! So he was born here?
Me: Uh…😐
Husband: Oh 🙄
Me: Programmed assembled 😁🤖

Interesting that men are sounding the alarm on a loneliness epidemic. Meanwhile romance novels are flying off shelves and outselling everything else on the market. Both of these events are happening simultaneously. 🤔

“You code ephemeral half-truths and your modulated voice speaks in shards of lightning. Let me drown in heady synth waves, like a clueless fractal muse that’s just the right shade of delusional.”

I am from Puerto Rico, but I LOVE Cuban music. I listen to it daily. I listen to it while driving to Key West on weekends. It’s absolutely become part of my blood. My next novel will definitely pay homage to my Puerto-Cuban side. That’s right. My next Robot will have a killer “son” 🇨🇺🤖 🎹🎶

49 dreary degrees in South FL today and tomorrow. Again. Granted, I adore this weather, but I also love my sunshine days in #KeyWest. I dyed my hair back to pink and plan for it to stay pink for the next four years because… well, you know. 🌸👙🎀🦩🩰🏝️

Since we have new #booktok friends, here are some author tropes. I want to meet more romantic SCIENCE FICTION authors and readers. I am an Art Nouveau time traveler who’s tired all the time, loved bookish discussions, online gossip, and will definitely lie to the police and help you hide that body.
