D M Smith

"To me, a book without ideas is a waste of my time. But ideas have to be real. They have to be flesh and blood. Otherwise they’re myths, existing in a different dimension. Necessary for society, maybe, or the military, or religion. Dangerous at times. But a pale alternative to real ideas."

D. M. Smith was born in Boston and has lived in New England, California, and Texas. Educated as an engineer, he started two technology companies and has since embarked on a second career in writing, sometimes pursued while driving around the American southwest.
