Background
Information
My inspiration for writing Nocturne, Opus 1: Sea Foam derived from a former career. Before I taught at Penn State and Temple University, I taught high school literature and writing courses. Like many English teachers, one of my goals was to write a novel. I envisioned a contemporary plot that would appeal to all ages of adults, from high school and college students through retirees, universal and interdisciplinary in nature, and able to be read as comfortably for its scientific issues as for its literary elements. The result? Fact-based fiction, as entertaining as it is informative.
Nocturne, Opus 1: Sea Foam is a fact-based, international suspense thriller about recombinant DNA, genetic tampering, and eco-terrorism that results in a normally passive waterborne bacteria becoming virulent and infecting young adults in their 20's and 30's.
Nocturne is a story about justice and our personal struggle to recognize injustice and correct it; it is a story about balance--balance in everything--our work, our families, our lives, and nature.
