I'm a new science fiction author writing about the consequences of climate change and sea level rise on human society.
Fleet: The Complete Collection
"The sea is big. The sea is cruel. She takes more than she gives. That's how it's always been."
The world has changed. Coastal cities lie abandoned as the encroaching sea rises, drowning and reshaping the land. Violent plagues, impervious to antibiotics, sweep across the planet, erasing entire communities in a single outbreak. The last refugees take to the sea, fleeing from the chaos in increasingly decrepit ships.
To the people of the Fleet, this is ancient history. There is no room for nostalgia when every day is a fight for survival.
Welcome aboard Miss Amy, an aging shrimp trawler that patrols the Reach hunting for the last few fish in the sea. Her captain, Spat, still believes that the ocean will provide but her young crew is no longer certain. A windfall catch, an animal that hasn't been seen in nearly a century, will send Miss Amy's crew on a journey that will test their faith in themselves and in the Fleet.
Not every secret remains lost in the deep.

and Prepared, a 25,000 word novella set in San Francisco during the fall of the last coastal metropolis.
Samantha Choi thought she was making a documentary about the Doomsday Preppers of San Francisco. She never imagined that she'd be documenting the end of the world.
With the city under quarantine, a deadly plague waiting just beyond its borders, and resources running out. The San Francisco Bay Preppers make the only rational choice and bug out. Some run to their bunkers while others take to the sea, hoping to ride out the apocalypse. Still others watch, from high atop the San Francisco Seawall, as disaster unfolds below. With no food, no security, and no way out, the survivors will be forced to take desperate measures to escape.
Set in the world of Fleet, where catastrophic sea level rise and global pandemic have rendered the majority of land uninhabitable, Prepared takes us to the final days of the last coastal metropolis.
