About the author

I'm the author of three published SF novels: Expert Assistance, Lisa's Way, and Monitor. I'm also the author of the coming of age novel True Friends, and the fantasy novel Cassia. I have several short story collections available. I've written several books on Kansas history. In addition to books, I've sold stories to periodicals such as Tales of the Talisman; Golden Visions; and Sorcerous Signals.

I'm hoping to live in tiny house one day. Aside from reading F&SF, my other hobby is model railroading.
