About the Author

I have many connections with braille and blindness. My wife is blind, and I am sighted. We both work at a company that sells braille translation computer software. We have two adopted children with visual impairments. None of that affect my books, except that my wife proofreads my text in braille.

I have an interest in politics, economics, and history. I like to serve up the dark side of these topics. I pay my credit card bills promptly because I do not want to build up a balance. I have two things in common with Jane Foremen. I had a similar intense summer school experience before my sophomore year in high school. I had a similar time investing in precious metals stocks in 2002-2003 when everything went up by a factor of 2 or 3 (except for the companies that mysteriously died).

My hope is that the reader will be carried through this book into a strange, yet familiar world via a damn good story.
