Who?

I’m a science fiction/fantasy author and a technical writer. A few years ago I was known for being a technical blogger, too. More recently I've been “microblogging” with a hodgepodge of Twitter-like status updates, the occasional photo, and sometimes actual articles.

My fiction

Some highlights:

• Kismet, a science fiction novel that won the 2017 Cóyotl Award for Best Novel and a 2017 Leo Literary Award
• Indigo Rain, a short fantasy novel that won the 2013 Cóyotl Best Novella Award
• Going Concerns, another short fantasy novel and a 2014 Cóyotl nominee

Here on Coyote Tracks, you can read a collection of short stories, mostly from various anthology appearances over the years. (You can find links to the actual anthologies, if they’re still available, on the works for sale page.)

My technical writing

I’ve worked in the past for RethinkDB, Realm, and Cisco Systems, among other companies. Currently, I’m at Samsung’s Bixby Labs, part of Samsung Research America. (Bixby is that voice assistant that’s actually better than you’re giving it credit for.)
