edit data

Narodil se v roce 1988 a momentálně pracuje jako redaktor časopisu 100+1 zahraniční zajímavost. Miluje hudbu, rád vaří a má úchylku na mechanické klávesnice. Do literatury pronikl po boku Jany Kilianové prostřednictvím cynického stripového komiksu Korektor. Prozaický debut si odbyl roku 2018, kdy mu nakladatelství Host pomohlo na světlo světa vyvrhnout intelektuální splatterpunkovou řež Čepel entropie. Na podzim následujícího roku mu u téhož nakladatelství vyšel postapokalyptický western Organická oprátka. Následovala dvojice noirových antidetektivek s Vincentem Krhavým – jmenovitě Posmrtná predace a Smějící se bestie. Jeho nejnovější knihou je znepokojivý atmosférický horor Zatloukání hřebů.

Vilém’s Quotes

“Having a bunch of cats around is good. If you're feeling bad, just look at the cats, you'll feel better, because they know that everything is, just as it is.”

“Direct engagement, which can be harsh and emotionally draining, simply doesn't happen that much on the technical side of intelligence, and almost never in computing. There is a depersonalization of experience fostered by the distance of a screen. Peering at life through a window can ultimately abstract us from our actions and limit any meaningful confrontation with their consequences.”
― Edward Snowden, Permanent Record
