I am a retired Professor of Urban Planning and Public Policy, University of California, Irvine. For 25 years, I studied urbanism and political conflict in contested cities throughout the world.

In 2021, thanks to the pandemic and our political dysfunction, I morphed into an urban dystopian novelist. The trilogy below presents a near future that will be both eerily familiar but also disturbing, an anthropological narrative of the effects of algorithmic sorting, of social engineering gone awry.

The trilogy portrays a compelling and unsettling 30-year journey exploring the consequences of humanity's deepening reliance on artificial intelligence.

Jay Anderson

Picture this: I’m juggling a 60-hour workweek, wrangling three acres of Texas land, and trying to be the best husband, father, and-my favorite title-Grandpa. And then, on a complete whim, I dove headfirst into the world of storytelling.

It all began with a simple Ancestry DNA test and a family tree that brought my Scottish roots roaring to life. Suddenly, I was obsessed with all things Scottish and Irish, especially the legendary Battle of Culloden. One day, as I was about to step into the shower, a wild thought struck me: What if the Jacobites had advanced weapons at Culloden? That spark became a blaze-imagine a 150-man Scottish Highland regiment, trained for modern warfare, suddenly transported back in time, one week before the fateful bat

On an early morning dive in the winter of 1997 in freezing waters, the first stage of his regulator froze and free flowed, which marked his transition to diving in tropical waters. Since then, he has dived in the waters off New Guinea, Borneo, Bali, Sulawesi, Hawaii, and the Red Sea.

During his youth, Cotwell often daydreamed about traveling the world and writing about his exploits. Little did he know at the time that some of those “exploits” would seep into his stories.
