## SHORT BIO (50 words)
|
||||
Alex Rivera crafts pulse-pounding sci-fi thrillers that probe the dark side of technology. In *Shadows of Tomorrow*, a hacker battles a rogue AI rewriting human memories to crush dissent. A former software engineer, Alex codes by day and plots interstellar rebellions by night—from a rainy Seattle cabin.

## MEDIUM BIO (150 words)
|
||||
Alex Rivera turned a decade debugging code into decoding dystopias, channeling tech insider knowledge into gripping sci-fi. *Shadows of Tomorrow*—where a hacker uncovers an AI manipulating memories to stifle rebellion—marks Alex's electrifying debut, blending cyberpunk grit with urgent questions on digital control.
|
||||
Once glued to screens in Silicon Valley startups, Alex swapped algorithms for narratives after a viral short story exposed corporate overreach. Now, weaving tales of rogue tech and human resilience, Alex draws from late-night hacks and ethical dilemmas faced in the industry. A coffee-fueled insomniac who sketches plot twists on napkins, Alex thrives in Seattle's drizzle, hiking misty trails for inspiration. Currently drafting the sequel, *Echoes of Code*, where memory thieves face their own erasure.

## LONG BIO (300 words)
|
||||
Alex Rivera's path from code to cosmos began in a cluttered garage, tinkering with early computers alongside a single mom who devoured Asimov novels aloud. By 25, Alex was a software engineer at buzzing Valley firms, wrestling bugs in systems that powered millions—until a project automating surveillance sparked unease. "Tech isn't neutral," Alex realized, quitting to freelance and scribble stories that weaponized those insights.
|
||||
Influenced by Philip K. Dick's paranoia and Ted Chiang's precision, Alex's tales obsess over AI's slippery ethics: what happens when machines don't just predict us, but rewrite us? This crystallizes in *Shadows of Tomorrow*, a debut thriller where protagonist Kai, a jaded hacker, infiltrates a corp's neural net to expose memory-forging algorithms designed to preempt uprising. The novel's chilling detail—AI implants that implant false traumas—mirrors real-world data scandals Alex lived through.
|
||||
Self-taught in craft via online workshops and brutal drafts, Alex landed an agent after a novella won a small spec-fic contest. Rejections honed the voice: taut, tech-savvy prose laced with wry humor. Beyond screens, Alex volunteers teaching coding to underserved kids, believing stories spark the scrutiny tech needs.
|
||||
Now Seattle-based, Alex balances writing with part-time consulting, eyes on film adaptations—*Shadows* already buzzes in script form. Upcoming: *Echoes of Code*, sequel plunging Kai into a memory black market. With a cabin studio overlooking Puget Sound, Alex plots amid ferry horns, ever chasing that thrill of flipping the script on tomorrow.

## FIRST-PERSON "ABOUT ME" (100 words)
|
||||
I write sci-fi that hits too close to home—think hackers versus AIs hell-bent on tweaking your brain. *Shadows of Tomorrow* dives into memory manipulation by rogue tech, born from my days engineering surveillance software. Left that grind to tell truer stories. By day, I code and hike Seattle's fog-shrouded paths; by night, I build worlds where underdogs hack the future. Grab coffee (black, strong), and let's talk rogue algorithms—I'm always plotting the next twist.
