About the author

Born in 1941 in Wheatland, Wyoming, he has described himself as the middle of six children. On his author website, he says his early life included moves from Wyoming to Utah, where he later built his career and life.

His best-known work is the Parallel Past trilogy, including The Plunge, The Renewal, and The Revealing. The series mixes time travel, parallel universes, romance, and Old West adventure, with stories set against a version of southwestern Wyoming along the Oregon Trail.

His public author pages present him as a writer drawn to imaginative, genre-crossing storytelling rather than strict realism. That mix of futuristic ideas and historical atmosphere gives his fiction a distinctive, accessible appeal for listeners who enjoy science fiction with a romantic streak.
