Apart from the obvious, I am also a huge fan of Star Wars, Mass Effect, and pretty much any other good sci-fi franchise.
I'm very much into vintage music, styles, and technology from the 20th century. Basically anything between the late 30s and early 70s has my name on it, though the 50s I find especially fascinating.
I read a lot of Stephen King, Ken Follett-authors like that. Blunt is kind of where it's at if you want the narration to move forward. People tent to try too hard, and let the language get too flowery imo. You lose track of the story. You have a good style.
