I started publishing science fiction short stories in the mid-1970s, and since that time have won several awards from the Book Excellence Awards, International Books Awards, Foreword Magazine Book of the Year Awards, IPPY Awards, and a Star of Washington Award. I write hard and soft science fiction because I enjoy it and want to read things I haven't found yet. I like ideas and often that's the basis for a novel or series. I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I enjoyed writing them.

BIOMASS: REWIND
For fans of Ben Bova, Robert Silverberg, and Greg Bear, BIOMASS: REWIND follows a group of 3D-printed humans manufactured by a sapient ship to colonize a new Earth-like planet. After landing on Beauty, the crew of scientists must evade gruesome death at the claws, thorns, and wings of hostile native wildlife, while learning to work together amidst growing interpersonal tensions. Soon, they discover that they are not the first humans to walk the planet, and the entire mission becomes suspect. Are they reincarnated from the harvested minds of the original crew? Or worse, can they even survive what other versions of themselves could not?
Asking the big questions plaguing our society today and always, BIOMASS REWIND is a thrilling deep-space ride that stays with you long after you've finished reading.
