My name is Leslie Michael Orchard, but you can call me Les. We’re all friends here, right?
I’m a serially enthusiastic, caffeine dependent {web,mad,computer} scientist and {tech,scifi} writer. I work at the Mozilla Corp., and I live in Livonia, MI, USA.
I was once a refugee from Ficlets, and those stories are now self-archived over at http://decafbad.com/skein/

So, my fellow Ficleteers, after over a year of soul-searchin’, I’ve returned. I have great things to write, if you’ll have me.

For eight long years of my life, I believed in something other than myself. I believed in people. It was the happiest time of my life.
On the ninth year, all of that changed. All of that changed, and I turned into what I am now.
I wonder if I still exist sometimes.
I was born in a small farm house in 1936 to a freshly wed Robert and Angela. My father was a car salesman for 20 years. He died of a gunshot wound to the heart at the age of 36. My mother raised myself and my 4 sisters up by herself. Working two jobs, and she still found time to read us bedtime stories.
I guess what I remember best are those stories. I remember expecting adventure and exploration. Those stories stuck with me. I suppose that is why I do what I do.
I was a journalist in the years preceding my favorite eight years. I worked for a small newspaper in Michigan. Before that, I worked at a law firm in New York.
I live now in a ranch just outside Fishtail, Montana. I run a shop, and I write stories.
So that is me.
