About Me
After an initial period working in healthcare, I moved into the computer field. For the next thirty years I did everything from building hardware, design and build applications, to planning and leading large-scale IT projects. It just about killed me. I semi-retired from IT, did some consulting and freelance writing. Then I had the opportunity to work in healthcare again. For the past four years I have worked in an emergency room where I've seen the changes in medicine since I left it.
Type of Writer
I've dabbled with horror but keep coming back to science fiction as my preference.
Writing Style
I've definitely been influenced by Philip K. Dick ("Show, don't tell")and Hemingway ("Keep it short and to the point").
Interests
I read and watch whatever I can find about time and the cosmos, especially the multiverse theory. What gets written now about these topics in sci fi may one day turn out to be reality.
