David Louis Edelman
Novelist
Reston, VA
Author of "Infoquake", "MultiReal" and "Geosynchron"

I'm a science fiction novelist, blogger, and web programmer living outside of Washington, D.C. I was a finalist for the 2008 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer.

My first novel, Infoquake, was published in summer 2006 by Pyr, an imprint of Prometheus Books. Barnes & Noble Explorations called the book “the love child of Donald Trump and Vernor Vinge,” then later named it their Top SF Novel of 2006. Infoquake was also nominated for the John W. Campbell Memorial Award for Best Novel. The book was re-released in mass market paperback by Solaris Books in June 2008.

My second novel, MultiReal (the sequel to Infoquake), was called “a thoroughly-successful hybrid of Neuromancer and Wall Street” by Hugo nominee Peter Watts, and listed as one of the top SF novels of 2008 by io9, Pat’s Fantasy Hotlist and SFFWorld.

His latest novel, Geosynchron, (the concluding volume of the Jump 225 trilogy) was released in February 2010. Library Journal says the book “tak[es] cyberpunk to the next level”, while io9 calls it “an engaging conclusion to a thrilling, thought-provoking saga.”

In addition to writing novels, I have also programmed websites for the U.S. Army, the FBI, and Rolls-Royce; taught software to the U.S. Congress and the World Bank; written articles for the Washington Post and Baltimore Sun; and directed the marketing departments of biometric and e-commerce companies. I am well-versed in PHP, Ruby on Rails, WordPress, HTML, Javascript, XML, and CSS, and is an expert in web usability, web design, search engine optimization and writing for the web.
