It's hard living next to a giant, even a friendly one, much less a clumsy hostile giant. Earth's unfriendly billions were an unpredictably restive presence.

Mackey Chandler is retired to Rochester Michigan from a working life that spanned a large number of occupations. Mold maker, aerospace machinist, plumber, mechanic, and dozen more as well as owning several businesses. This life experience and travel show in the depth and variety of his writing. A life long reader of Science Fiction, the authors at Baen’s Bar and their evening chat room motivated him to try his own hand at writing. His first effort was a short story titled Common Ground which sold to the short-lived Jim Baen’s Universe. That is now the lead story in a collection of shorts. Paper or Plastic was his first Kindle book. Two series have been added starting with April and the second series starting with Family Law.
