Author has written 49 stories for Pride and Prejudice.

I'm an early 60s retired software geek, living near Seattle with my lovely wife and teen daughters. I've been writing JAFF for 6 years, with 35 stories totaling 1.4 million words, including everything from 800 word one-shots to 250,000 word monsters.

My wife Amalia and I built up a significant software company over eight years and finally sold it to Elekta. Our software provides huge clinical benefit for clinical staff treating Cancer patients, and we are extremely proud of the work we did and continue to do. I've been working on helping treat Cancer patients for 30 years, and this is the capstone of all that work. Software I wrote is used to treat hundreds of thousands of cancer patients all around the world day in and day out.

In my 40s, I rode 12,000 miles through 18 countries on a recumbent bicycle in my Vision Quest. You can google for "Wade's Vision Quest" for my non-fiction writing. It's 600 pages about my 3 year trip from 2000-2003.

In my earlier life, I grew up in a sawmill, so I think I can probably claim the mantle of the only lumberjack-geek-romance writer out here.

I met my wife in Madrid, Spain about 8,000 miles into the trip (she's from Madrid and there's quite a romantic story there).

Welcome to my stories!

Wade

The Retirement Plan reviews
Fitzwilliam Darcy's attention is already QUITE fixed on Elizabeth Bennet before he ever arrives at the Meryton Assembly. Why? Let's find out in this humorous little tale. This is an AU short story crossover with Bladerunner (sort of) with some moderately bad language.

Till Death Us Do Part reviews
A compromise at the Netherfield Ball leaves Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet stuck with each other 'til death us do part'. This story is pretty high angst, with some interesting angles, an unusual style and unusual pairings (E&D of course, but otherwise all bets are off).

Longbourn Math reviews
Elizabeth Bennet, being more aware of her financial situation decides to give Mr. Collins due consideration in the Longbourn Proposal. This is an unusual work, with three stories in one. It's a one-shot, a short-story and a novel slightly larger than canon all in one. It mixes math, metaphors, and all sorts of craziness to come up with 3 HEAs. More than a bit off the beaten path.

Common Sense and Simple Arithmetic reviews
What would have happened if Elizabeth understood Mr. Darcy better before the proposal and was in fact fully expecting it. She was an intelligent woman, and without an excessive amount of prejudice, she could have worked it out. Let us see what happens when she FULLY understands the gentleman, in all his particulars, BEFORE the proposal.

The Propriety Advisor reviews
Since the rules of propriety are sort-of like laws, what happens when you violate one… or two… or maybe more? What happens if two different people break the code? Do they cancel each other out, or do you have 'two wrongs don't make a right? If it's unclear, do you need a referee or umpire… or maybe a Propriety Advisor. (One Act Play)

The Cliffs of Hertfordshire reviews
It turns out that Mary Bennet does not care for being publicly humiliated by her father at the Netherfield Ball, and her reaction has far-reaching consequences. This story is moderately high angst, has a pretty bad beginning for the Bennets, and a long road to happiness., but it is several adventure stories in one along with the occasional bit of romance.
