Science and technology fascinated me from my first light bulb. The world of imagination containing global communications networks, hand-held computers, interactive virtual televisions, suborbital jet planes, space travel, nanotechnologies, and laser holograms became real. Where earlier generations thought, “What if?” My youth let me study their “what if” future as “what is” everyday life.
My specialties in electronics and communications guide my effort to make my stories plausible. My perspective of our social and technological direction in our present world gives me some insight into the fascinating possibilities we may experience, a challenge for anybody.
I grew up reading volumes of Science Fiction. Through many masters' tales, my imagination took me to places and times unattainable in our mundane real-world. After completing each inspiring book, I imagined where the plots might go from where they stopped. Endings were never the actual end.
Science Fiction fascinates me because it influences society and our future. In writing the Field of Orbs series, I studied the biographies of the masters. Their education, experience, and skills humble me. I don't profess to enjoy the accolades they earned, but I value an exciting chronicle encompassing an effort to drive thought and discourse.
Though I dreamed of authoring narratives of my own, I never found a question exciting enough to encourage investing my effort to spin an answer, as a novel, much less a series.
In 2004, I imagined the story behind the mysterious orbs, and my life changed. I found a purpose. I discovered why we are here.
My first effort in publishing “Field of Orbs” in 2011 resulted in a single, lengthy book. Hoping for a future print version release, publishers suggested I break the anthology into a series. In the years since, I rewrote Field of Orbs into four volumes, each containing a related set of logs.
Volume One: “Battle for Innocence”
Volume Two: “Discoveries of the Ancients”
Volume Three: “Struggle for Hope”
Volume Four: “Cradle of Life”
