My name is Robert J. B. I am in the last class of my Bachelor's degree in biology from Northern Arizona University. I deliberately chose general emphasis as I'm interested in several different areas of biology including ichthyology, phycology, marine biology, microbiology, and genetics.
I am a published writer with several short stories under my belt. Both are science fiction. One of my short stories was a semifinalist in the Writers of the Future contest. Four other (unpublished) stories of mine have received honorable mentions in the same. I also had a story on the quarterly shortlist for the Aeon Award in the UK.
I also do freelance work providing nonfiction web content for a few websites, including eHow and Answerbag.com. Thanks to this, I've actually been able to live off my writing a few times.
Lastly, I am working on a nonfiction book on the history of UFOs. I am more skeptical than most people who've tackled the subject, but I do believe there is something real and strange at the heart of it. It's fun playing historian because it challenges me to think differently than a biologist.
