About the Author

I am a writer, editor, technologist and contrarian living in Scottsdale, Arizona. Although I've worked as a programmer, I've been in the technical publishing industry (both magazines and books) from 1985 until I retired in 2015. I co-founded Coriolis Group Books in 1989 and ran editorial until the company closed in 2002. Most of my book-length work has been on computer technology. (See ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE STEP BY STEP and LEARN COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE WITH RASPBERRY PI, as well as many more titles now out of print but available used.) In my spare time I'm an amateur radio operator (callsign K7JPD), amateur astronomer, and SF writer. My first SF novel, THE CUNNING BLOOD, appeared in 2005 but I have been selling SF stories to magazines and anthologies for over 50 years, and was on the final Hugo Awards ballot in 1981.I now have seven volumes of SF and fantasy on KDP Select, plus a collection of my short nonfiction and miscellaneous works, and a middle-school romance. My wife Carol and I met in high school and have been married for 48 years. We live in Scottsdale, with one Bichon Frise dog.
