About me:

I'm the author of the Jani Kilian series: CODE OF CONDUCT (1999), RULES OF CONFLICT (2000), LAW OF SURVIVAL (2001), CONTACT IMMINENT (2003), and ENDGAME (2007). ENDGAME is the last book in the series.

In addition, a Jani Kilian novelette entitled "Incident on a Small Colony" appeared in the December 2006 issue of Baen's UNIVERSE online magazine, and is now available via AnthologyBuilder or on my website.

I'm also edging into urban fantasy/dark fantasy/science fantasy. We'll see how that goes.

What else...?

Won the New Writer Campbell in 2001.

My LiveJournal, which I update almost daily, is located here.

My website is here.
