A world of

I’m Ilia Sheludiakov. I write about time, human nature, and the choices that shape a life.

Taking
the long view.

An investor’s perspective.
A writer’s curiosity.

Based in Dubai, I work across investing, nonfiction and fiction. Each begins with a similar question: what will matter when we look back?

My path into writing grew from a personal interest in change — how small decisions, repeated over time, shape who we become. Those ideas became Temporalism: Make Time Your Ally, my first book in English.

Through short stories, essays and conversations, I explore the less measurable parts of life: memory, longing, relationships, and the things we leave unsaid.
