ANDREW MCDONALD (1962-....) was born an Army brat and travelled the world until the ripe old age of 10. After attending Florida Institute of Technology on scholarship and graduating with a B.S. in Applied Mathematics (1985) he then spent seven years as an officer in the U.S. Army Signal Corps. He saw active duty during Desert Storm in the early 90's. Since then he has spent over 30 years as an emergency-911 police, fire, and medical dispatcher. He is the author of two full novels, "Punishment and Good Deeds" and "Killing Keys" as well as any number of shorter stories. Married since 1985 to his wife Emily (accountant and soon to be nurse), they and their four children, 6 grandchildren (so far), two dogs, and a cat reside in Florida. Andrew is currently working on a YA novel set in the near future where about 10% of the world's population has developed psychic 'super powers.' There are state sponsored hero teams and villains galore. "Where there be super heroes, there, too, shall be super villains." Keep your eyes peeled for 'The Marauder's Daughter.'
