Dead Balance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780985343859)

Gary Wayne Clark is an engineer by training, a venture capitalist by trade, but a storyteller at heart. With interests as varied as science fiction, movie soundtracks, poetry, and photography, many divergent projects have sprung to life from his frozen fortress of solitude high in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. His sci-fi novel series, "The Devolution Chronicles," is an epic journey from a post-apocalyptic Earth to the planet of Niburu, where the reader is asked: "What if there was a world where man no longer reigned, and evolution ran backwards?" His haiku/photography series, "High Country Haiku," is a photographic journal of life above eight thousand feet in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. It started as a way to capture the native spirit of a simpler life in America's high country, but devolved into something deeper, something more spiritual, and in the end, provided a glimpse of the path to enlightenment. As a member of the Grammy(R) Recording Academy, the hallmark of his stories are the critically-acclaimed companion soundtracks by his band, Earamas(TM). Songwriters Gary Wayne Clark and Glen Dale Spreen provide an island of uniqueness amid an ocean of conformity. Together they have quietly been weaving an unexpected genre bending musical tapestry that stretches the boundaries of the imagination. With four albums and two singles, their music can be heard streaming from the cloud in eighty-five countries around the world. When Gary's not wandering the Trail of the Ancients, exploring the ruins of Chaco Canyon, or traveling among the Hopi and Navajo tribes to share stories, he lives in the high country of Colorado on his ranch with his wife Jillaine, a Great Doodle named Neli, and the spirit of his shape-shifting interspecies translator, a telepathic Great Dane named Raz.
