His options dwindling by the hour, he grapples with friends who might be foes, foes who might be friends, and a final chance to reclaim himself after a near-century of darkness.

ABOUT

THE AUTHOR

Charles Brass is the pen name of a middle-ager who believes in the maxim "Write what you want to read!" He enjoys science-fiction above all other genres, and action-adventure tales most within the genre- though space opera and epic tales come a close second. He's not into convoluted explanations of technology or how things work- hey, it's science-fiction! Have fun with it!

 

IHe currently works in a small city west of Minneapolis, as a CT/MRI technologist for the local hospital. Writing has been his passion for over two decades. Writing well has been his dream.

He is at work on his next project.

WHY SEABRASS?

Back in the early days (1988-ish) when I knew I one day wanted to be a published author, I decided on the pen name 'Charles Brass'. Brass is part of my actual last name, and in the bookstores at the time, Brass was between Bradley and Brin in the Science Fiction/Fantasy section (two well-known authors). 

 

Fast-forward a decade or so when the internet was really becoming a thing. I tried to secure the name CharlesBrass, but it was taken. Then I tried CBrass. But it too was taken. So... I tried Seabrass (as in C. Brass). And lo! It was mine!

So, since then, the majority of my online presence has been seabrass.something. Now I also use charlesbrassMN (my email address here is charlesbrass@seabrassproductions.com). And that is how I came to use 'Seabrass' in my little online world.
