| Introduction | I am a writer and pop culture critic in the genres of science fiction, horror and fantasy. Although I'm an American (of Mexican and Portuguese descent) I write in British English. The Fool’s Illusion, a short story collection, was my first published book. My next collection, Bad Apps, is coming out Summer 2026. From 2011 to its closing in 2016, I wrote film and computer technology reviews for the news site, Examiner.com. I reside in my native Sacramento, California. |
