Gary Stringer
Scientist by profession, I try to give real science concepts a fantasy twist in my writing.
Update for June 2025

While studying for my B.Sc. in Chemistry, I met a friend who introduced me to fantasy fiction, especially TSR, AD&D type books. Despite all I've read since, that remains my frame of reference for the fantasy genre.
My Salvation of Tempestria of Series, beginning with Shifting Stars is rooted in a updated version of that kind of fantasy world. But it's just 1

That image is of my beloved dog, Lucy. She moved on to the next stage after 16 years, not so long ago. We've recently adopted an abandoned kitten, too. I did not think I was ready for another pet yet, but it pleases me to know she is not in one of our overloaded animal shelters. She's quite the performance artist.
I've started writing the sequel to "Petals in the Hail," "Blades in the Sun," My goal in writing is to make riveting fantasy adventures worth banning in the mid-west. I am, at heart, a culture warrior, and I find the demonizing of the LGBTQ community revolting.

I’m the author behind two paranormal suspense series designed to keep you on the edge of your seat and maybe even tug at your heart.
In The Dead Game Series, The Dead walk in the night and into the day, leading our heroines on a dangerous journey from the sunny shores of Florida to the icy reaches of Quebec.
My latest project, The Blue Harbor Series, introduces a new pair of heroines determined to save their coastal town from an ancient Indian curse. In Book One: Meet Me In Maine, they confront the curse’s dark origin and the painful legacy of the Penobscot Nation, unjustly uprooted by colonization.
So please sit back, put your feet up, and let me bring a little mystery and romance into your world.

It is my shadow in my profile picture, taken fourteen years ago. I was around 3000 meters high (approx. 10000 feet) on a mountain called Rinjani. It was near dawn, and I was about to miss the sunrise on the peak as it was still a distance (vertical!) away. The terrain was difficult; I wasn't in tip-top condition since I hadn't been climbing for a long time. Nearing the peak, I slid down two steps for every three steps I took. It was exhausting; I considered quitting and kept questioning my existence and objective.
I didn't quit and reached there in an embarrassing amount of time. I missed the sunrise but, thankfully, also the sunrise crowd and had the peak all to myself. It was awesome. The mountain has a beautiful turquoise-c -
