Brief Author Bio: For work I do SharePoint Branding and Architecting, WordPress tweaking, UI designing, Graphic Design and Layout, and am a General IT type geekster. I'm also an Animal Loving (Pets: greyhounds, cats, pug, alexandrine parakeet), Vegan, Step-kid having, Sci Fi reading, Flybaby with interests in animal cognition, animal behavior, and the human-animal bond. In a former life I ran a forensic science consultancy, which ruined every crime show for me for the rest of forever. Too bad there’s nothing else on TV. |

Synopsis: Signal to Exit the Roundabout
I've had an idea for a long while to fictionalize the life of [a close relative], a mostly harmless yet subtly devious man who has lost money in every get rich quick scheme there is, and maybe tie it in with some Sci Fi elements - my favorite short story genre.
