Four billionaires conspire to control the distribution of new longevity tech, intending to expand their wealth throughout eternity and give access only to those who are most deserving.

Mia Seis, a scientist responsible for the breakthrough aging-reversal discovery, stumbles unwittingly across their devious scheme. Her secretive, abusive billionaire boss presses her to find an injectable solution, yet he just placed a death mark on a co-worker who innocently suggested that this stunning, new capability should benefit all of humanity, not just the few.

New friends suddenly appear and offer to protect her from a similar fate, but she’s torn between hating her boss and loving her work. Will they convince Mia to leave in time?

In the restless heart of Austin, Texas, where suffocating heat darkly complements the stifling societal pressures of 2034, Rose Rulapaugh—besieged by life’s harsh realities—struggles to find her place.

Shattered dreams line her path: a high school pregnancy ending in tragedy and a promising education never pursued. Jobless and languishing in the family’s rented duplex the last five years, Rose’s burdens are multiplying. Her mom’s medical condition is deteriorating, and younger brother Jack is tripping down their father’s path of irresponsibility.

When a hurricane sets off local tornados, destroying the duplex and swamping Austin with millions of coastal immigrants, Rose is forced to quickly find shelter for her and her dog. By a stroke of luck, she encounters Tyren, a genetic engineering postdoc student working a secret project. Tyren provides lodging in his converted garage while promising to help Rose achieve her dream of genetically resurrecting an ancient Shasta Ground Sloth.

Rose’s well-honed skepticism is on high alert: Nothing could be this easy. She wonders if Tyren’s generosity is from the heart, or if he expects ‘recompense’ that she’s unable to provide given her difficult past and the state’s restrictive reproductive laws.

As she fears, every silver lining has its clouds. Dr. Amy Lee, Tyren’s boss, offers her a no-questions-asked job at a genetics company. She then thrashes Rose for exposing critical projects and potentially releasing virulent pathogens. And, despite Rose’s best efforts to avoid it, she and Tyren might be getting closer. Too close.

Can Rose find meaning and purpose as she navigates her existential future in a city bursting at the seams due to global warming? Will she be forced to choose between succumbing to life’s relentless grind or embarking on a transformative quest for personal identity, agency, and even redemption?

A platinum-gold obelisk crash-lands on a Saskatchewan farm and appears to warn of an alien invasion. Peter Scott is elated at its arrival, hoping this existential threat to humanity will improve his sagging science podcast ratings.

In response, he and his small team decide to reinvigorate their podcast by interviewing controversial experts with brazen solutions to defend Earth from the anticipated invaders.

Yet there’s one other problem: It’s 2037, and DNA is just another programming language.

People didn’t get along so well before, but bigotry and bias have skyrocketed now that some are actively hybridizing: Black market CRISPR gene editing tech adds new body features like tails, manes, or extra appendages; subdermal temple chips replace cellphones for internet and cloud access; and metallic inserts are augmenting bones.

Conservatives vs. Progressives; Majorities vs. Minorities; Humans vs. Hybrids, and now Humanity vs Aliens…where will it end?

Alien marauders and social disruptions aren’t the team’s only challenges. Shadowy forces are threatening to kill the podcast – or them.

****FREE eBook and Audiobook: Google PlayGoogle Play, also on Kobo, B&N, Apple Books

It’s 2054, 17 years after the Great Debacle. Long-time high school wrestling buddies Sam and Ross are in their favorite bar, irreverently bickering and snickering as usual.

With due regret, Ross asks Sam if he should partake in the new anti-aging treatments that would potentially extend his life for hundreds of years. Sam thinks Ross is an idiot for even considering such things, given their pathetic post-Debacle world and the chaos the two have endured in the last few decades.

A stranger joins the three, and they hope he’s not an undercover thug snooping around for radical types to red-flag in the budding oligarch-controlled state. In a conversation ripe with personal derision and cussing, all three harangue about the new longevity technology and what it might mean to them.

They also regurgitate a few good points about the volatile intersection between human society and longevity tech, but will anything of value get accomplished?

Rick has but one objective before he dies – to broadcast a brilliant, momentous laser signal to warn alien civilizations about humanity’s tragic decline.

In 2075, the dystopian, post-apocalyptic nation-state in which he lives is ruled by tech-enriched oligarchs who monitor every human activity to ensure that a second apocalypse will not occur.

Rick knows that the punishment for unwanted surprises will likely be fatal, and he’s clearly gone over the line already by secretly constructing a petawatt laser in the barn and disgorging a furious criticism of the present state of society.

But suspicion is growing fast, and he’s running out of time…

Sixth Episodic Novel in the Predictable Paths series; Episodes 79 – 93; 216 pp.

****FREE eBook and Audiobook: Google Play, Google Play, Kobo, B&N, Apple Books

A narcissistic, psychotic oligarch rules over a second-rate, post-apocalyptic domain in the western part of what was once America.

Sara, his communications minister, loves her job and proudly supports him despite his insanity. She tells her team: “Work is work, and you should take pride in it, even when your job is to deny, divert, distract, detract, and deceive.”

Yet this day is not going so well. Ron, her maniacal and probably AI-controlled boss, is screaming at his ministers, raging about a highly visible and clearly embarrassing incident that just occurred in his domain.

He orders Sara to immediately develop and lead the response – to gloss over it, blame the locals, or accuse their many regional enemies of stirring up hatreds. But such accusations could lead to frightful backlashes from their belligerent, tech-rich neighbors. Could her response set the world afire?

Seventh Episodic Novel in the Predictable Paths series; Episodes 118 – 159; 468 pp.

****FREE eBook and Audiobook: Google PlayGoogle Play, also on Kobo, B&N, Apple Books

Sord is a normal teen, attending high school in Prosperity, the domed nation-state that arose from the ashes of a second Great Debacle that left the species clinging to a very tenuous edge.

Prosperity is humanity’s last gasp at creating a viable, long-lasting society, one based on principles of how people should treat each other and themselves – and not much else.

He lives alone with his mother, a refugee from outside encampments where life remains violent and harsh. But Sord knows little of that strife and pain, given the relative safety of the domes in their protective nation state.

Perhaps it’s teen angst, but Sord longs to live freely as humans once did, before the two recent Debacles. To help him understand those times, his mother makes him read his ancestor’s unpredictable diary, which on the surface seems utterly boring to the 16-year-old.

Trouble seems to trail him, just like it did his ancestor. First, there’s the moto incident, then the racnines, and more. Luckily, he finds an ebullient new girlfriend, and they embark on an edgy adventure together to discover the truth about his father’s mysterious death. Will that lead to more problems for the poor guy?

What will critics say? “0 (Zero) Stars! If this is the current state of legal satire, then woe be the system that engenders such drool.”

Daisy is enjoying a great day, anxiously awaiting the afternoon’s dumpster Delights. What? Wait a second. This is where ‘Rat Dog’ gimps-in from nowhere and sarcastically knocks her oversized ears and stub tail, then treats her friends with equal impertinence.

And that’s not all. The rasty, scrawny, half-breed chihuahua demands his fair share of Delights, angering the lofty purebreds who claim first dibs over lowly mongrels like himself.

Perhaps Daisy and friends should collar this impudent, irascible ingrate before he draws them into big trouble with the pedigreed perennial powers that be. Yet the sniveling rat fears nothing and is determined to tussle with the snootiest snouts in the land. Will he succeed – or get popped like the troublesome tick that he is?

Margot Dances in Dreams (Book 1 of the series) – Genetic Engineering Science Fiction novel

Margot’s angry – and for good reason.

She just emerged from a coma, discovers she’s been abducted by aliens, and finds out rather indiscreetly that Earth’s inhabitants are dead – except for the few that survive with her in the aliens’ zoo. Now, that’s the definition of a bad day. Worse yet, these aliens are nice to her . . . pretty much.

The aliens have been living for billions of years and seem to have it all. Their Wall effortlessly shapes matter for them, and they live eternal lives – yet their sense of what’s important seems a bit jaded. It’s not surprising, considering that they’ve seen millions of civilizations come and go, with Earth being no exception. They could really care less that another measly species met its self-inflicted demise.

As for Margot, she has everything she could ever want, including eternal life. But there’s this nagging thing called “adjustment period,” and she just can’t seem to get beyond it. The aliens’ reasoning about why Earth was toasted doesn’t seem to stack up well in her mind. They’re saying humanity was at fault. It’s not what you want to hear when you just lost everything. And the story seems to have a few holes…

Should she just put up with the discrepancies and go enjoy eternal life with every wish fulfilled? Or should she create a little trouble?

What Remains of Hope (Book 2 of the Genetic Engineering Science Fiction series)

Things aren’t getting better for Margot . . .

In the first book of the series, she was involved in some unfortunate events including a skull-crushing accident, the devastation of Earth, and an alien abduction. That put her in a bad mood, for obvious reasons, but she eventually found a novel way of evading her apparent reality.

Now, she’s back and even angrier than before because someone is toying with her mind. It’s either the person in control of the programs being forced into her head or her alien zookeepers who say she’s imagining things.

To her surprise, Margot holds a unique power to either get out of this mess for good or end it all for herself and her friends in the zoo – along with the nice little group of aliens who abducted her. The question is: which world is real, and how does she get back to where she really wants to go – Earth?
