I founded TNHY Publishing as an imprint for my book, The Next Hundred Years. I’ve enjoyed the self-publishing process. As I write my second book, I’ll be sure to improve on the process. I like the writing and the publishing.
I had a long career in academic statistics, biomedical informatics, and university administration, all at the University of Florida. Math is fun, programming computers, data analysis, informatics, ontology work — all fun, but most of all I loved the people — researchers, assistants, programmers, technologists, research subjects, and everyone else. A wonderful career. All those talented people revealing how the natural world works. Working in population health, laboratory science, and clinical science.
And along the way, I met people in other disciplines — in the arts, the social sciences, animal care, agriculture, engineering, business, and many more. They were doing important work, too.
After a bit of time retired, and after leading a large international software project, I tried my hand at writing.
I had an idea — stories about the next hundred years, and that’s what I named the first book. The next hundred years will be exciting, tragic, and hopeful. Full of humanity, technology, and science.
I joined the Writers Alliance of Gainesville, a wonderful group of creative, helpful people, and set about writing science-based stories about the future.
Along my journey, I found out that science-based stories of the near future might appear in literary journals and other outlets. Authors published their books after the stories appeared in journals. I didn’t want to wait for that. So I founded TNHY Publishing so there will be a book. I’ll send to journals, too. I hope that’s okay.
