About Me
Typically i write speculative short fiction. That's mainly because i like lasers and spaceships and strange yet wonderful techie-things, and have a short attention span.
I'm also working on a novel or two. As long as I don't get distracted by other shiny things I'm okay.
And there you have it. Embrace my ethereal writerly identity, interweb!
