About me
Jay Maynard is a lifelong computer geek whose career spans everything from embedded systems — like the ones in microwave ovens — to IBM mainframes. When he’s not in front of a keyboard, he’s on ham radio, serving on the Fairmont, Minnesota city council, tinkering with his Mercedes-Benz 560SL, or poking around in Second Life (okay, that one still involves a computer). A devoted science fiction fan since age eight — when his uncle gave him a copy of Larry Niven’s World of Ptavvs — Jay became Internet-famous as the Tron Guy, a role he embraced with humor and style. He lives with his roommate and more computers than either of them can count, including five small mainframes. Foundational Laminate is his first novel.
