I've been trying to decide if reading my X posts is a good way to decide if you'll like my fiction, and my answer, tentatively, is 'yes'. I write fiction because I have questions, and those questions are usually around the intersection of biology, psychology, and culture, and competing cultures and the friction between them and the bridges built over those fractures. Inevitably, since my family was ripped apart by Communism, they're also about what to do when existential or theoretical threats become literal, physical ones, and the nature of courage and fear and duty at that point.

It's dressed up in aliens and elves and cat people and gamers, but it always comes back to the individual, the group, and rival groups. Which (I would say) is what most of human life is about, anyway. What else?
