Author Bio
DF Capps is an author of Meteor Storm,
Tsunami Storm, and Solar Weapon, technothrillers featuring
new technologies and ancient history. Capps tries to illustrate the ways
technologies we currently have could be used and he mixes these new
technologies with his fascination with ancient history and alternative
Archaeology. For Capps mixing the new and uncharted with the old is an exciting
and illuminating undertaking.
Capps attended Wayne State University for two
years before joining the U.S. Navy. Later he was Honorably discharged from the
Submarine Service and went to work as an electrician in the Machine Tool trade
in the Detroit area. Capps was initially trained in electronics in the Navy and
expanded his training to include Industrial Computer Control and computer
programming. Due to the fluctuating automotive job market in the Detroit area,
he developed his design skills in both mechanical design and electrical design.
Capps has six U.S. Patents and won a national design competition in 1985.
As a former electrical and mechanical
engineer, Capps draws upon his experience to create much of the technology in
his novels. He has a keen interest in emerging energy sciences and in his quest
for knowledge on this new technology, Capps developed the control system for an
over-unity electrical generator and witnessed first-hand the capabilities of such
developing technologies, "The day I made the measurements on a machine
that was producing eight times the electrical energy that it was consuming was
a life-altering experience. I saw for myself what could actually be done, even
though it was against all of my electrical training. Since then I have
questioned everything that is considered conventional knowledge and found it
terribly lacking. We actually live in a world that functions at a very
different level from what we perceive."
Capps uses this new understanding of the
greater possibilities for science and technology in his sci-fi thrillers. Some
of the writers who inspired Capps are Michael Baigent, Dr. Eben Alexander (Proof
of Heaven & A Map of Heaven), and David
Baldacci. Capps has attended dozens of webinars through Writers Digest to
work on perfecting his writing craft. Capps’ goal as a writer is to fashion an
entertaining story and then to weave generally unknown facts into that story
leaving the reader wondering just what is real and what isn't. If he can
entertain a reader and make that reader question the reality around them, then
he considers his efforts a success.
