WWC Speaker
When Words Collide Conference is an annual event in Calgary, Alberta. This is my first time being a speaker for the event. I’ll be on a panel of three discussing an up and coming sub-genre that is becoming more popular: “cozy sci-fi”, no longer just cozy mysteries 🕵🏼🚀

Lens Perspective
Lens Perspective: if my face and the Tower Bridge look a bit warped, it’s due to the fish-eye setting on my camera–all about the lens we look through, just like life😄I’m in the Kew Gardens, London, England – 2018.

Sci-Fi Visionaries
Sci-Fi Visionaries: Aldous Huxley wrote this cautionary tale back in the 1930s – food for thought. Hopefully, CRSPR will heed those DNA cautions – clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats 🧬
