John L Ford

John L Ford is a lifelong fan turned author of Science Fiction. He hails from a background in Natural Sciences having a degree in Meteorology. Owing to the fact that both his chosen literary genre, and his acumen in weather forecasting both offer plethoras of opportunity for fiction ... it is quite fitting that any Meteorologist's creativity would be in the art of the 'what if.'

His attempt does just that ... extrapolate a vision of a world from a foundation of real sciences, pushing plausibility as suspense. This, his first novel, Dominion takes an esoteric aspect of real human biology, mixes it with solid-state physics, and produces an AI that should really force the reader to question its feasibility. Writing this sort of fiction with enhanced feel for explanation perhaps got more than planned for, ..as it was later shown by Sir Roger Penrose, famed Physicist and Mathematician, et al, that the very 'fiction' that propels the story, may in fact be real in nature and not so much fictional at all. This novel was written with no formal affiliation or awareness of those real worlds sciences as they were unfolding. Thus, Dominion tells the story of human ingenuity meddling with real Nature in a uniquely suggestive way.

He otherwise keeps his intellect sharp through is professional dayjob in software technology, as well as occasionally blogging in social media platforms relevant to the above. In between hours given to these, and tears given to heartaches elsewhere, or gazing at clouds he dreams up his next novel.
