The spark was my high school chemistry teacher who taught our class about the orbital properties of large elements, and that superheavy elements might exist and have unique properties. Others have had this idea with the hope of superconductivity, but I went to time travel. From there I imagined scoops of the past naturally jumping forward hundreds or millions of years via lightning strikes, and why no one had noticed.

Since I was a little, I’ve been prone to escapism. I was perfectly happy being left alone to make up movies in my head. As I got older, the cast of characters grew with me and became more complex.

It’s a story about loss, and the stamp it leaves on every part of your life. It’s about losing even the trust in yourself—and learning who you are once the rest has been stripped away. It’s about rebuilding or reclaiming what was lost: drawing strength from unexpected places, be it the anchor of found family, the crucible of old wounds, or the conviction born of new purpose.

Courtrooms are often disguised as theaters and lawyers as actors. But at its core, jury trials are full of stories, wins, uplifts, losses, heart breaks and sometimes, sheer terror. These two books are a lifetime composite of what I learned trying big cases in five states.

I was driving across town one day when a new idea clicked. It had to do with a society that played out in virtual reality, which was virtually perfect, but in reality, awful. That wasn’t exactly how the story ended up, but I knew I had a vehicle that could carry everything I wanted to say.
