  <about><![CDATA[Dayton is a software developer, having become a slave to Corporate America after spending eleven years in the U.S. Marine Corps. When asked, he’ll tell you that he left home and joined the military soon after high school because he’d grown tired of people telling him what to do all the time. 

Ask him sometime how well that worked out. 

In addition to the numerous credits he shares with friend and co-writer Kevin Dilmore, he is the author of the &lt;i&gt;Star Trek&lt;/i&gt; novels &lt;i&gt;In the Name of Honor&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Open Secrets&lt;/i&gt;, the science fiction novels &lt;i&gt;The Last World War&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Genesis Protocol&lt;/i&gt;, and short stories which have appeared in the first three &lt;i&gt;Star Trek: Strange New Worlds&lt;/i&gt; anthologies, the Yard Dog Press anthology &lt;i&gt;Houston, We’ve Got Bubbas&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Kansas City Voices Magazine&lt;/i&gt; and the &lt;i&gt;Star Trek: New Frontier&lt;/i&gt; anthology &lt;i&gt;No Limits&lt;/i&gt;. Though he currently lives in Kansas City with wife Michi and daughters Addison and Erin, Dayton is a Florida native and still maintains a torrid long-distance romance with his beloved Tampa Bay Buccaneers.]]></about>    <gender>male</gender>  <hometown>Tampa, Florida</hometown>
