About the author

I'm the author of twenty-eight published books, including the seminal cyberpunk cult hit DREAMS OF FLESH AND SAND, (the first book of THE DREAM TRIO) the best-selling prehistoric thriller THE LAST MAMMOTH, (writing as Margaret Allan), dozens of shorter works of fiction, and several screenplays for film and television.
I started out typing poetry at the age of thirteen on an Underwood portable that smelled of mothballs, machine oil, and rust. Currently, my writer's toolkit includes desktop, notebook, and pad computers equipped with voice recognition systems, and a smartphone so I can carry much of my brainpower with me.
Lately, as print publishing continues its chaotic collapse into the digital age, I've slowed down a bit, though I do try write at least one book a year. In one of my early novels, I had a character ordering groceries online - long before the WWW existed. Today, I do that very thing myself.
I write a well-known and respected libertarian-conservative blog called The Daily Pundit, where, on New Year's Day, 2002, I named the Blogosphere. I also maintain an emergency preparedness site called Survival-Preps.com.
Currently I am at work on a massive story of an America in financial, social, and political collapse after a catastrophic terror attack on the states west of the Rockies. The first book, Lightning Fall: A Novel of Disaster, was in 2011. The second book, After the Fall: American Caesar is in progress. My latest book, There Will Be Time: Space Opera On a Grand Scale, was published in January 2022.

Vintage Cyberpunk at its best!
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2011I read mainstream science fiction throughout the 1970s, Asimov and all the other greats. In the early 1980s I was very busy in medical school and had no time for recreational reading. I did pick up a copy of Omni magazine from time to time, so I ran across William Gibson's short fiction and was intrigued. Fast forward to 1993 and I picked up Gibson's 1984 novel "Neuromancer". What a revolution! The gritty dystopian future seemed much more realistic that the idealized scifi of my youth.
I began collecting cyberpunk fiction, and before long discovered W. T. Quick and his book "Dreams of Flesh and Sand." Now I have an iPad with the Kindle app, and Mr. Quick has conveniently reissued his novels in an affordable digital format. I really had a blast reading through this novel again. It holds up well, better than some other name brand cyberpunk authors. And don't forget, the first virtual reality orgasm. Overall, a thought-provoking romp through cyberspace with cyber-cowboys and cowgirls.
When you finish this one, there are two more novels in the Dream trio. If you like this genre, try Neal Stephenson's "Snow Crash" and just about anything by Bruce Sterling.

Great Romp.
Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2016Referencing classical S.F. with sweeping visions of What Comes Next, thru cyberpunk from last week. Quick's love of the language nearly buries the story at first, but plot and characters finally come thru.

I Do Love Well Written Cyberpunk
Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2011Ahh, Cyberpunk, I do like me some Cyberpunk. I just finished reading "Dreams of Flesh and Sand" by William T. Quick, the guy that runs the "Daily Pundit" blog (who also came up with the term 'Blogosphere' and remains largely uncredited for this) and what a fun ride it was. I've been a fan of William Gibson's and Bruce Sterling's work for a long time and quite a few other authors in this genre and Mr. Quick has now joined this elite cadre of 'go to' writers that I will read pretty much everything published by them.

Ahead of it's time.
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2013This is a classic cybperpunk book, covering everything from nanotech to artificial intelligence. Written before the internet, smartphones and all of that, this fascinating novel seems to predict all of them. Well worth the read.

If you want the real Matrix...
Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2011Read this book. Amazing storyline, intense action, and you will discover a much more in depth story than the one the W brothers ripped off (and then ruined).

Reviewed in Australia on November 28, 2014Enjoyed this book a lot. A classic cyberpunk novel, much in the vein of William Gibson.
