edit data

TLDR: I'm basically wired to create the Ted Lassos of the Science-Fantasy-Action-verse.

A long time lover of all things Genre, I write character-driven sci-fi and fantasy for lovers of out-of-this-world adventures, featuring a plethora of rough-around-the-edges heroes who, like most of us, stumble as often as they succeed.

My published books include solo works such as the Gideon Quinn Adventures and various shorts, and my co-written works include the Errant Freight series with Kelley McKinnon, and The Zodiac Files with L. Gene Brown. I am also developing an urban fantasy series when time allows.
