About Me

I'm a novelist. My first book is Sovereign's Hold, which I like to think of as "gentle" sci-fi. I still like it.
My second book is Resurrection, which is quite good, if I do say so myself. It's was published by the Peguin imprint NAL and has done pretty well! It was even optioned by Opus Productions and they hired me to adapt it. (It all came to nothing when the fellow running Opus died in a motorcycle accident. I feel bad for him, but drugs and motorcycles do not mix well.)
Now I'm finishing up my third novel, Superhero, a funny thriller set in my old boarding school, though the school has been renamed and fictionalized. Perhaps less fictionalized is my incredible introversion and near-constant embarrassment in high school. Or is that just the main character I'm thinking of? Hard to know. Perhaps she's nothing at all like me. Perhaps I'm much, much cooler. Anything is possible.
Pieces of Superhero will be serialized in my blog over the next year, so please come back.:)
