I am a full time writer and blogger living in Vancouver, Washington. I am an author of both non-fiction and fiction, as well as a contributor to the GeekDad blog on Wired.com. I write on a wide range of topics. When not waxing poetic on various aspects of fiscal responsibility, I tend toward the geeky.

When not poised over the keyboard, I love to spend time with my family. I am married to an angel, Jaylene, who has taught me more than anyone else about true mercy and compassion. We are the parents of three wonderful girls. As a group we like swimming at the local pool, gardening, reading aloud, playing piano, and beating each other soundly at whatever table top game is handy.

I love to hear from my readers. You can contact me at erikwecks@gma

Chris,
The best place to start would probably be Aetna Adrift. It is a prequel to The Far Bank of the Rubicon. You could start there as well as it is the beginning of the story. Unconquered is the short story collection which follows minor characters from The Far Bank of the Rubicon.(less)

Earlier her husband had felt the same unnatural chill, and in his rush to return to her warmth, he'd left the toilet seat up.(less)

Quotes by Erik Wecks  (?)

“Aim at nothing, and you get nowhere. Aim at something, and even in long odds you often get closer than you would otherwise.”
Erik Wecks, How to Manage Your Money When You Don't Have Any

“The truly wealthy don't often pursue status. They don't need to. They have already made it. The pursuit of Rolex watches and $100,000 vehicles is for wannabes like you and me. Why pursue status when you've already achieved it?”
Erik Wecks, How to Manage Your Money When You Don't Have Any

“How we spend our money reflects our true values at that moment in time.”
Erik Wecks, How to Manage Your Money When You Don't Have Any
