I write software by day and stories by night, a combo made even odder by the fact that I started my adult life as a marine biologist/geneticist. Even though I got my Ph.D. ever so long ago I still love science, especially the biological variety, and my fiction is full of it. Science, I mean.
Redemption comes in many forms. Jake could redeem himself by rescuing his twin brother from brain damage. Amnesia yearns to atone for sins she committed before unwanted brain surgery changed her moral compass. Terra wants out of the fog and back into her lab to continue her world-saving research. Dr. Ryder, neurosurgeon, could engineer redemption for them all, but only at the expense of her own.
