By day, Vaughan Stanger works as a research project manager for an aerospace and defense engineering company. This is less interesting than it sounds, which might explain why, twelve years ago, he began setting himself homework. He has seen his stories published in Nature, Nature Physics, Postscripts, Interzone, Hub, 3SF, Oceans of the Mind, Neo-opsis, Scheherazade and Stillwaters Journal, and in translation in Nowa Fantastyka and Mercury.
