William Kaufmann lives in rural Wisconsin and works full time as an artist-potter. In collaboration with his wife, Cynthia, they are multiple award-winning ceramic artists.

His passion for writing started in 10th grade reading Huxley and Asimov, then Margaret Atwood and Ursula Le Guin. These authors opened the strange and fascinating worlds of science fiction.

in 2017,William's first novel, The Change, won the SDSU Merit Award. In 2018 his short story, The Bruised Peach, ​received the Hummingbird Editor's Choice Award from Pulp Literature.  


Humanity’s best hope to save itself from self-destruction is an experiment to fast forward evolution. Bridget, a human with a keenly unique DNA, will birth such a being. Nobel-winning scientist Marie Faysal has also created Bodhi, an intelligent bio-organic machine. Bodhi’s  mission: protect Bridget.  The year is 2131.  

But like most experiments, things can't be predicted or predictions go wrong—terribly wrong.
​
Questioning who and what she is, Bodhi turns her assignment upside-down.  Instead of protecting Bridget, the young droid blackmails her.
