Hi, Time Traveler of Life. You’re right; scifi appeals to my wish to warn the world of human stupidity. But I love telling stories, so it’s an ideal form in which to combine the themes with interesting and appealing stories.
But I always let the story chose the genre, and much of my work is, in reality, cross-genre.
Thanks for visiting, and commenting. I’ve had a look at your site, Brenda, and you too have a very mixed bag. Good luck with your writing.

You really have a mixed bag of tricks! I think your first love is Sci/Fi, though. I do as well, but also like love stories and gentle horror, if that is possible.
