L'autore
I come from a family of writers: Dad was a newspaperman and wrote books about aviation, Aunt/Uncle wrote Westerns and Detective stories, Mom wrote a couple of B-movie scripts. Must be osmosis. I've done magazine work, both fiction and nonfiction. I'm author of a US history text and contributed to texts in the sciences, including earth science. I've done tech-writing for the Silicon Valley computer industry. My techie experience hatched an idea that became my first novel, about an attempt to sabotage the nation's telephone system (INTERRUPT, published by TOR Books). I went in a different direction with the Forensic Geology Series, taking mystery into outdoor adventure territory.
