Chris MasonChris Mason was a software engineer for 18 years, including 10 years at Microsoft working on Word and Office. He would rather have spent that time writing novels, but someone had to make enough money to buy dog food. He is also the founder of GrowlyBrd Software, which develops free Macintosh applications. Born in Ohio, Chris has moved around too much for anyone's good, living in several places that might be considered tourist attractions. He mines those experiences for the settings of his books. He lives in Florida with his wife, two dogs, two cats, and a smart-aleck macaw who has pets of her own. You can contact him through his publisher: quaternarypub at gmail. Read More Read Less
