Get to Know D.A...

Birthdate? November 25th (occasionally on Thanksgiving Day in the US)

When did you start writing? In High School, many, many years ago. I didn’t take it seriously until 2010.

When and what and where did you first get published? My first published story was “Vector Victoria” in L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future, Volume XXVII, in 2011.

What themes do you like to write about? I love the very human struggle to overcome obstacles, man versus him/herself. I also enjoy writing about space and hard science. I don’t know as much as I should about those subjects, but I struggle through the research and try not to mess up too badly.

What books and/or stories have most resonated with you as an author? Why? How do these stories and their characters find expression in your work? I’m a big fan of Isaac Asimov, Larry Niven, James White. They describe larger realities, worlds filled with so much more than the ordinary. These authors were all great story tellers, and it’s the story more than just the writing that draws you in. Beautiful craft is just the crust of the pie. These authors leave you with plenty of filling, and it’s the story I strive for in my own writing.
