Andrew's works are high-concept works that attempt to answer questions about human nature in science fiction settings. Could slavery happen tomorrow, based on historical patterns? How do normal people justify and rationalize their roles in an oppressive system? He provides psychological insights through entertaining, futuristic worlds.
Having recently published Models and Citizens and the short story collection Gemini Book, taking place in the same universe, Andrew is currently working on the second book of the Reality Gradient series - Bodhi Rising.
From a small town like many of his characters, Andrew grew up in Texas but currently resides just outside of Seattle, Washington, with his wife and two children who consume most of his non-writing time. Any additional available time he spends playing guitar or writing.
Influences to his work include Kazuo Ishiguro Never Let Me Go, Mur Lafferty Six Wakes, and Octavia Butler's brood series. Purchase Models and Citizens - a compelling novel about how morality and convenience drive us framed in a story of survival and escape. The rest of the series has already been written and is scheduled out later this year.
Publications include:
Bodhi Rising. (in progress). Two friends, a sickly youth and a coma patient, avoid death to find themselves on opposite sides of the corporate battle for the future of the immortality industry.
Models and Citizens. A college graduate and an escaped clone attempt to evade capture and persecution while forging an unlikely friendship.
Gemini Book. A collection of short stories taking place in the same universe as Models and Citizens.
Authentication, privacy, and security can exploit brainwaves by smartphone. Invited scientific paper at SPIE.DSS.
