Born and raised in McPherson, KS, I started reading sf with Stanley A. Widney’s “Elevator to the Moon” and never stopped. Soon I discovered Andre Norton, Isaac Asimov, and Robert A. Heinlein. Today, I write thoughtful science fiction stories exploring the limits of human knowledge and imagination. You can keep up with me via my science fiction newsletter, The Cosmic Codex.
The Cosmic Codexis a journey into the mysteries of our universe, and an exploration of the stories that help us contemplate our place within it. I share essays on recent scientific advances, thoughts about how science fiction might help us explore their implications, reviews of books and stories written by others, news from the literary sf community, and updates on my own fiction.
