B. A. Brander

B. A. Brander spent decades working in technology and watched, again and again, people meet a new tool with fear before they had met it at all. The Selvage Ledger grew out of that: a story about what it costs to let a machine do the counting, and what it costs to do it yourself. Brander writes speculative fiction about the tools we build and the people who have to live with them.
