I like to imagine this is kind of what the Illinois #prairie looked like 200 years ago.

I write science fiction and fantasy stories.

I speak Esperanto, and use it to communicate internationally. Esperantistoj, legu mian esperantan hejmpaĝon.

To my very great surprise, I seem to have become a taiji instructor. I teach both beginners and continuing students at the Savoy Recreation Center.

For eleven years I was a senior writer at Wise Bread, writing about personal finance and frugality.

  • View from the back of the train
  • Sunrise over flooded fields
    From the train it looked like the whole midwest was flooded.
  • Dawn over flooded fields
  • Sleeper car selfie
    We'd just boarded the train at Union Station.

So they put us on this shuttle with a dozen people who were doomed to miss their connection in Chicago who were being shuttled to Indi to board their train already en […]
  • Kansas field and road
    Every field and every road in Kansas looked like this.
  • Worse flooding
    All the fields from Illinois to most of the way through Kansas were flooded on the way out. The flooding was even worse on the way back.
  • Stump that looks like a hedgehog
    The picture doesn't quite capture it...
