'''András Gregorik''' (born [[1976]]) is a [[Hungary|Hungarian]] [[novelist]] and [[screenwriter]]. His main themes include, both in fiction and non-fiction, the social and/or emotional [[solitude|isolation]] of [[Highly sensitive person|highly sensitive]] individuals due to [[mental disorder]]s, misfortune, [[poverty]] or simply being different, and their ensuing [[Salvation|redemption]] through a [[Spirituality|spiritual]] journey of either a [[Christian]] or psychological kind.

==Biography==

===Childhood and youth===

Gregorik was born in [[Budapest]] on May 10th 1976 to a lower middle class family. His parents, a [[Jewish]] economist mother and a [[Unitarian]] entrepreneur father, divorced when he was 6, and he rarely saw his father afterwards, living with his mother and grandmother.
Initially a highly social child and a good pupil, Gregorik became interested in books and computers, beginning to write fiction in his teens, including early drafts of the fantasy world [[Arfondam]], the premises of a novel started several years later. He also wrote game [[walkthrough]]s, and some of them were published in issues of the early gaming magazine ''Commodore Világ''<ref>http://pcvilag.muskatli.hu/irodalom/CoV/CoV6/cov6.html</ref><ref>http://pcvilag.muskatli.hu/irodalom/CoV/CoV36/cov36.html</ref><ref>http://pcvilag.muskatli.hu/irodalom/CoV/covek95/covek95.html</ref>. He enjoyed [[solitude]] throughout his teens, and was an ardent fan of [[speculative fiction]], [[horror film]]s and [[computer role-playing game]]s<ref>http://www.mobygames.com/user/sheet/userSheetId,5546/</ref>.

Following his years at [[Anna Frank]] High School in Budapest, he began working as a translator of film dialogs around 20, and worked for several months on a horror-themed PC adventure game ('Below') and a role-playing game ('The Guild') that never materialized due to a shortage of funds. He began writing short stories more regularly around [[1997]], though none of these early pieces survive. He became highly interested in Realist literature, [[classical music]] and [[psychoanalysis|psychoanalytical theory]], self-teaching these disciplines in the next few years before enrolling in university. He also created what he termed ''source lore'' (''osforrástan''), a custom form of lay psychology influenced by [[C.G. Jung]] and [[Viktor Frankl|V.E. Frankl]] that formed the core of the novel [[Basic fault]].

Gregorik moved to Budaliget (a leafy suburb of Budapest) in 1998, and started indulging in a newly discovered lifestyle of sex, drugs, rock gigs and [[Goa trance|goa]] parties soon after, dating several young women and traveling extensively throughout Europe. Gregorik researched Eastern religions and regarded himself a novice [[Raja yoga|Raja yogi]], a [[Buddhist]] and a [[Zen]] Buddhist, respectively, before becoming a [[born-again]]<ref>http://www.gotessays.com/essays/2563/index.php</ref> [[Christian]] in late [[2002]]. Previously, he was briefly involved with the Church of [[Scientology]], [[ICOC]] and the [[ISKCON|Krishna]]s. He wrote his first film script ([[What planet are you from?]], 2003) loosely based on his Christian conversion and on [[Pushkin]]'s [[Onegin]]<ref>http://www.gotessays.com/essays/1405/index.php</ref>. He unsuccessfully tried to mount a film project based on the script between 2003-5 as a director, shooting plenty of material with [[prosumer]] equipment featuring fellow students. He plans to re-edit the material as a short film titled ''The Introvert''. He also created a short documentary about the [[Sziget]] Festival called ''Sziget Etude'' (2003).

Gregorik majored in English Language and Literature at the [[University of Budapest]] between 2001-05, the title of his final thesis was "Shakespeare's approach towards Christian Mysticism after 1600".

===Career===

From early 2006, Gregorik turned to full time writing. He wrote two screenplays ([[Basic fault]], [[Pseudolife]]) and his first novel (also titled ''Basic fault''<ref>http://irodalom.blog.hu/2008/04/14/gregorik_andras_alaphiba_irodalomblog_kulonkiadas</ref>) in quick succession following a trip to [[Cuba]]. None of the three works was published or greenlighted initially despite mostly positive feedback from critics, including the Society of Hungarian Writers (''Magyar Írószövetség''). Two of his short stories were shortlisted in a literary competition by a Hungarian foundation (2008)<ref>http://bja.shp.hu/hpc/web.php?a=bja&o=rijA4qVmmw</ref>. A feature film based on his ''Basic fault'' is in pre-production stage (2008)<ref>http://www.filmtett.ro/cikk/203</ref>.
