I write two types of hard science fiction. The first uses lightly extrapolated science, usually in a near-term setting, and includes such titles as the novels L4 Station and MarsX. The second uses highly extrapolated science, which I will call speculative hard science fiction, usually in a distant future, and includes the novels Mach's Metric, Null Infinity, and Time Wars. My style of writing could be considered big idea and adventure with a touch of romance (sometimes). One reviewer compared my writing to Isaac Asimov's writing. I love Asimov, and I think that's a fair comparison in the scope of the work, importance of ideas, and general optimism, but I do think I handle characterization differently, maybe because it interests me more.
