  <about><![CDATA[Also credited as [author: Mark Tiedemann] and [author: M. William Tiedemann].

Mark W. Tiedemann has published ten novels---three in the Asimov's Robot Universe series, /Mirage, Chimera /and/ Aurora/---three in his own Secantis Sequence, /Compass Reach, Metal of Night, /and  /Peace &amp; Memory/---as well as stand-alones /Realtime, Hour of the Wolf/ (a Terminator novel), and /Remains/, plus /Of Stars &amp; Shadows/, one of the Yard Dog Doubledog series.  As well, he has published over fifty short stories, all this between 1990 and 2005.  /Compass Reach/ was shortlisted for the Philip K. Dick Award in 2002 and /Remains /was shortlisted for the James Tiptree Jr. Award in 2006.

For the last four years he has served as president of the Missouri Center for the Book (http://books.missouri.org) from which position he has recently stepped down.  He is now concentrating on writing new novels, a few short stories, and stirring a little chaos in the blogosphere at DangerousIntersection.org and his own blog at MarkTiedemann.com

Oh, he still does a little photography and has started dabbling in art again after a long hiatus.
