Author bio:

I'm a bank clerk by day and a writer by night. My published fiction so far involves Star Trek, but I intend to branch out into general SF, and maybe fantasy, too, if I get the chance. My partner-in-crime is ex-Cincinnati resident Steve Mollmann, and together we’ve written one novella (Star Trek: S.C.E.: What’s Past #2: The Future Begins), two short stories (in Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Sky’s the Limit), and the short novel The Tears of Eridanus (in Star Trek: Myriad Universes: Shattered Light). Our first standalone, full-length novel came out in September 2011, entitled Star Trek: A Choice of Catastrophes.
