Author: lloydearickson

Lloyd Earickson is the founder and author behind IGC Publishing, host to his Blood Magic short story series, now in its third season. Since he began taking his writing seriously in 2016, he has drafted three novels and dozens of short stories and novellas, including several available through IGC Publishing. A professional astronautical engineer with an insatiable curiosity, Lloyd’s writing, like his work on spacecraft, seeks to explore all regions of space and time.

Sacks’ Haggadah Review

Written approachably, so that even someone (like me) who has only a limited background in Judaism can follow the arguments and assertions he makes, many of the essays offer unique insights that are applicable regardless of your religious faith.

Missing Hunger

The idea that experiencing challenges and hardships improves us in some way is deeply woven into our modern culture, and not just in the form of the oversaturated superhero genre.

Dialogues of Seneca (The Younger) Review

Presented in the fashion of the earlier Greek dialogues (like Plato’s), most of them revolve around the notion of “the wise man,” a kind of ultimate goal for which all human beings ought, according to Seneca, be striving.

A Short Story Argument

Think of argument as how a story bridges to reality

Organon Review

If there is one book that will help you on your critical thinking journey, it is Organon.

Relatively Wrong

I want a morality that allows us to say with certainty, and with no caveats, “that is evil.”

202402.15202310.10 lloydearickson Classic, Philosophy, Reviews

The Fountainhead Review

I would put it on a list with The Lord of the Rings, 1984, Plato’s Republic, John Locke’s Two Treatises of Government, and other writings that I think everyone should read at least once in their lives.

Choosing Viewpoint: The Third Person Omniscient

If we look back at the origins of storytelling, I posit that there are two natural viewpoints from which stories can be told: the first person past tense, and the third person omniscient.

Longitude Review

It might be decent for what it is, and you will likely learn something if you haven’t done much reading on the longitude problem before, but after the research I did for my novel, this had little new to add.

202402.06202309.23 lloydearickson Education, Writing

Choosing Viewpoint: The Third Person Limited

Third person limited past tense might be the single most dominant viewpoint in genre fiction today.
