Have you ever wondered what it takes to build worlds? Not just one world, but dozens? Welcome to my life as a multi-genre author. I'm Dallas W Thompson, and I spend my days navigating the cosmos in mind-bending science fiction, falling for morally gray fae in steamy fantasy romance, and exploring the very fabric of reality through philosophy. It's a wild ride, and I want to take you behind the scenes.
The Burning Question: How Do You Write Across So Many Genres?
It's a question I get all the time. How do you switch from writing a high-stakes sci-fi thriller like ZERO POINT, where alien energy threatens to unravel our reality, to a dark fae academy romance like CROWN of SHADOWS, where the only thing more dangerous than the magic is the desire?
The answer is simpler than you might think: it all starts with a single, powerful question.
For my Alien Energy Trilogy, the question was: What if the next world war wasn't fought over land or resources, but over a new form of energy that could rewrite the laws of physics? That single question sparked a three-book series that explores everything from hidden wars and alien technology to the very nature of consciousness.

For my Dark Fae Romance series, the question was more personal: What if the person you were most drawn to was also the one most likely to destroy you? This led me down a path of creating morally gray characters, deadly fae courts, and a romance so intense it threatens to burn down the world. It's a journey into the shadows, and I've loved every minute of it.

The Thread That Connects It All: The Human Experience
Whether I'm writing about alien invasions, fae politics, or the philosophical underpinnings of reality, there's one common thread that ties all my work together: the human experience.
My background in philosophy and my passion for science have taught me that the biggest questions about life, love, and our place in the universe are universal. They're the questions that keep us up at night, the ones that drive us to explore, to learn, and to connect.
That's why I also write non-fiction books like The UNIVERSAL MIND, which explores consciousness as the fundamental fabric of reality, and children's books like LILYPAD and the QUEST for the GLIMMERING GEARS, which introduces young readers to the wonders of STEM.
Because at the end of the day, a good story is a good story, no matter the genre. It's a story that makes you feel, that makes you think, and that stays with you long after you've turned the final page.
What's Your Story?
I believe that everyone has a story to tell. What are the questions that drive you? What are the worlds you want to explore?
