Since 2019, I am a full time writer and part-time fashion designer. I write science fiction, historical fiction and contemporary fiction, and I have published some poetry. As a fashion designer, my label, Transforma Garments, focuses on garments that can be modified on-the-fly to serve different needs. A first collection, developped in 2011, the gzip dresses, presented dresses involving three pieces (sleeve, top and skirt) that zipped together in different ways diagonally to form a contemporary look. In 2015 I developed a collection of underbust fashion corsets (the Infinity corsets) which incorporated panels that could be zipped into place to change the appearance of the corset. Two new collections are currently under development, one tied to the publication of my first science fiction novel, called “Plenum : The First Book of Deo”, slated for publication in March 2021 by Untimely Books, the book imprint of Metapsychosis. The PlenumAR collection consists of three belts that, when viewed via a smartphone, generate virtual animations of elements from the novel. A second collection under development seeks to created gender fluid garments that modify the wearer’s profile, feminizing or masculinizing the person’s appearance. I am also an editor for Metapsychosis – see my blog postings for details about my editorial practices.
