Goodreads asked A. Umaz:

What are you currently working on?

A. Umaz Though I prefer to work along story lines that represent real possibilities, my next work addresses the idea of individuality in the face of the infinite, and employs a rather fanciful character named Ptatkurapki. Though not a scientific or evolutionary impossibility, Ptatkurapki's improbable existence asks the reader to grant some literary license. The work itself is a musing over the relevance of the individual in the vastness of the cosmos. Ptatkurapki (translated: one of many) engages with a human protagonist, and finds it hard to understand the human sense of "me."
