Notă biografică

I'm a father of two and live in Edmonton, Alberta with my wife, thirteen-year-old daughter, her pet rescue turtle, and aquariums. I write on my laptop while sitting in a reclining chair, drinking my decaffeinated or herbal tea, and listening to the chatter of red squirrels and the chirping of wild birds. Science fiction can be my way of expressing optimism about the future and how we can make things better. More often, it's me standing on a roof shouting, FOR GOD'S SAKE, DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN!
