His writing remains his primary passion.  His works include 18 of poetry, fiction, and memoir, hundreds of publications in literary magazines. In 2011 he won the Exile/Vanderbilt prize for short fiction--a story included in his most recent book, God When He's Drunk.  He calls all his books "hypotheses" because of his interest in the integration of the sciences and the arts. While continuing to write and publish poetry and fiction, but for over a decade he has been devoting much of his energy to his Secret Agents trilogy, which was completed and published this year. 

He also has had articles in computer magazines, written commercial software for test evaluation, been an Arts columnist, as well as published in refereed scientific journals on empirical aesthetics, statistics, and computer research applications.  He has presented papers at numerous international conferences, most of which relate to creativity, and in 2012 was invited to give a TEDx talk on “Redefining Creativity”. He was the founder and editor of Nebula Magazine from 1975 to 1984 and currently edits the reincarnated Nebula as an unperiodical Internet publication committed to work that bridges the ‘Two Cultures’ of science and art."
