I am a student of science fiction, always reading new and old SF. After finishing a PhD in English Literature with an emphasis in Science Fiction Literature, I started a blog to review and analyze SF. I have 1 published book examining what I call archival embodiment—using people as information storage. I write science fiction. I have a lot of ideas about what science fiction should do and I try to jam it all in there. Sci-fi should: 1. examine science and technology, often creating novums—new tech 2. constitute a critical interrogation of society—it is cultural commentary 3. make people laugh All of the best science fiction authors do most or all of those three things really well. Aside from all that, I live in Campbellsville, Kentucky with my lovely wife Rebecca and daughter Frances. We go on walks as frequently as possible. We have a park and a lake nearby, so there's always something pretty to see. Rebecca reads a lot of detective fiction. Frances is really into Charlie Brown, Garfield, and Calvin and Hobbes. I like books by Philip K Dick, Bruce Sterling, and Steven Kotler.
