Jim

Author, musician, gamer, technophile, and all around geek. I love my books, particularly science fiction (with fantasy running a close second). I also love to write my online, Halo-based graphic novel called Reclaimer. Aside from that, technology is my first love, and I like to pass the time playing video games.
