I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
— Douglas Adams

Welcome to my corner of the web. I'm a writer; I have published several short stories and am at work on the requisite novel-in-progress. I'm forever rooted in the imaginative legacy of the science fiction and fantasy genres, although (along with many of my contemporaries) I tend to write things that don't fit conveniently inside well-worn genre boxes.

I'm a web developer by day (and night, lately), for which you can see evidence on my professional site, Longbar Virtual Creatives.

You can follow my writing career and, at present, my experience with Hodgkin's lymphoma at my blog, A Spork in the Road.

I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.
— T.S. Eliot, The Wasteland
