Windycon 50

I obtained a PhD in biochemistry but, lacking the patience for scientific research, switched into science/medical writing. Now retired, I have recently completed a first novel, a sword and sorcery work titled The Whip of Abadur, and am currently seeking a publisher. I am interested in all aspects of science and the future, societal as well as technological. Interests in science fiction and fantasy are also broad and date back to the 1940s, with participation in con panels dating from the 1990s and service on con Access teams from 2014. I have been legally blind for 25 years and currently serve as treasurer of Chicago's annual Disability Pride Parade.
