I write to explore ideas and how they may affect individuals or humanity, whether it be tomorrow, decades in the future, or centuries. I wish to show the individual struggling to pursue their goals and desires, to build on their success, and to overcome their failures.
The Siege of Mars
The discovery of an abandoned alien city buried under the Martian plain has propelled Frank Brentford and his employer, MarsVantage, onto a collision course with Washington’s ruling class. The technology and knowledge will propel MarsVantage to self-sufficiency, but Senator Maura Severino submits legislation, which will quickly become law, to nationalize all alien technology.
Rather than surrender their hard-earned discovery and a secret that would destroy humanity if it fell into the wrong hands, Frank and MarsVantage chart a more challenging course by facing a highly trained and heavily armed Space Force to secure their freedom and prosperity.
Will Frank prevail?

The Music of Mars
Blackballed from archaeology on Earth, Gretchen Blake consults for MarsVantage to discover a revolutionary energy source in a remote Martian cave with odd symbols as her sole clue. MarsVantage isn’t the only interested party—Interplanetary wants the prize and MarsVantage itself.
Can she navigate a web of bribery, theft, spies, and murder attempts to discern the symbol’s meaning and reveal the energy source? Does more await, possibly changing humanity’s future?
