About the Author

Like many people, I caught the writing bug during COVID in 2021. My first novel, "A Letter Guide For Rebecca," became my pandemic project and is now available on Amazon. But writing is like a virus—once it's in your system, it doesn't leave quietly.

I've also created a 10-episode TV series called "Living with the Ghost of Sam" (yes, that Sam Kinison), which is currently being shopped to studios and producers. There's something fascinating about exploring how larger-than-life personalities continue to influence the world even after they're gone.

But when the writing bug bit again recently, I wanted to tackle something with a major AI theme while creating something truly unique. In the world of science fiction, "unique" is incredibly tough to achieve, but I think I found a storyline that fits the bill.

The Last Axiom addresses a concept that keeps me awake at night: What would happen if our science-based laws suddenly changed? What if the constants weren't constant anymore?

The series explores this idea across 16 interconnected books (though Book 13 grew so large it had to be split into two parts). Each book is designed to be a perfect 30-minute read—because I love to read when I go to bed, and there's something magical about a story that starts and ends in exactly the time it takes to unwind from the day.

Think about it: in our world, gravity always pulls down, light always travels at the same speed, and certain mathematical relationships never change. But what if they did? What if the universe decided to update its operating system while humanity was still running on it?

That's where cosmic intelligence, consciousness evolution, and the very question of what makes us human all collide in ways that I hope feel both scientifically grounded and absolutely mind-bending.

When I'm not imagining scenarios where physics breaks down, I'm living a life that's almost as adventurous as my fiction:

The upcoming global circumnavigation feels like the perfect real-world complement to the cosmic journeys in my books. There's something about being alone on the ocean, surrounded by forces bigger than yourself, that puts both technology and human resilience into perspective.

Maybe that's why The Last Axiom resonates with me so deeply—it's about navigating uncharted waters when all your instruments stop working the way they're supposed to.

In a world where AI is rapidly changing everything we thought we knew about intelligence, creativity, and human capability, The Last Axiom asks the questions that keep me up at night:

What happens to human relationships when consciousness can be enhanced or transferred? How do we maintain our humanity when the definition of "human" becomes negotiable? And perhaps most importantly—when faced with the choice between transcendence and tradition, what do we choose to preserve?

These aren't just science fiction questions anymore. They're tomorrow's headlines, wrapped in today's entertainment.

I hope you'll join Derek, Maureen, Luke, Nancy, and the rest of the cosmic crew as they navigate a universe where the only constant is change itself. And who knows? Maybe by the time I'm sailing around the world in "It-Girl," some of these impossible scenarios won't seem quite so impossible after all.
