I live in the upper Midwest, where I work as a software developer and. I’ve got a family with between two and forty-three people (you’ll have to guess the exact number), which keeps me busy. This site is mostly about my fiction writing, with potential occasional excursions into linguistics, language creation, or general sci-fi issues. If you’re not interested in any of these things, I guarantee you that this blog will be exceedingly boring.

You can also find me at Stack Overflow if you’re interested in computer programming Q&A. I’m also the author of Phonix, a domain-specific language for modeling historical sound changes.
