I've worked as a technology journalist and technical writer, scripted computer games written for television, published several novels and a hundred or so poems, did story, scenario and report writing for the Institute for the Future in Palo Alto, CA, and was for several years a Visiting Scholar at the Stanford Archaeology Center (and published two archaeology textbook-novels).
