About me:

.. Well, not exactly about me, but this is what I do. This is my latest, though it is now almost two years old in print. I write science fiction. REMAINS is my tenth novel. I'm writing an historical at the moment, so soon, if all works out, I'll be more than a science fiction writer. But I find enough similarities between SF and historical that I don't see it as a stretch. So please, if you've a mind to, check out this book. Or my others. They can all still be found available on Amazon, even the officially out-of-print ones. Have a good read. Meanwhile! No one is only one thing, though they may claim otherwise. Having thought about it, I've decided to reveal a few more aspects. Besides the writing, I am a phtographer. I don't do it professionally anymore, unless you consider lab work as a day job "professional." I took it up in high school, became enamored of the black&white work of Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, and other members of the f/64 Group. On my regular website you can find some examples of my work. Oh, that site is at www.marktiedemann.com I am also something of an amateur musician, though I say that with irony and amusement. I play piano and guitar and occasionally I write some of what I do down. I'm just competent enough to sit in with groups or play the occasional "original" piece, but to be honest I play music the way I write stories---I make it up. I don't have the time anymore to sit down and seriously learn a repertoire, but I've been playing long enough to be able to "pretend" to play just about anything. I have a dog. Coffey. She's a mix---of what with what I don't know, but the same can be said for most people, so I consider that a plus. As part of the strangeness that has been my life, I am the current president of the Missouri Center for the Book. This is a state program connected to the Library of Congress. Our goal, our mission, is to promote the culture of the book in Missouri. Check out our website at books.missouri.org I should say that both websites mentioned above are slated for thorough revision and reconstruction some time in the next several months. I may add more here later, depending on how much of my secret identity I think I ought to reveal.
