I started off as a mild-mannered Mad Scientist (physics) but now I torture software for a living. Writing at first was merely a way to cope with my favorite authors not writing fast enough--but it grew.

I like to tell tales of adventure, with interesting people I'd like to spend time with, doing interesting things they care about. Oh, and someone wins in the end. There may be a price for that victory, but there WILL be one. No grey goo or emo navel-gazing in my books!

I've just completed my 8th book, which should be out Real Soon Now.
