D. J. Newman is a 3d game artist, illustrator and writer. He lives in Massachusetts with his wife, his son, and a variety of other tetrapods. His previous written work was The Tediad, a comedic take on the Iliad. It had some good parts, but it was probably a bit too long. He is interested in biology, paleontology, and the diversity of life on earth.
