Joseph Carrabis has been everything from a long-haul trucker to a Chief Research Scientist and holds patents covering mathematics, anthropology, neuroscience, and linguistics. Now, he spends his time writing fiction based on his childhood experiences with trauma, violence, and abuse. Told in the guise of military science fiction, his novel The Augmented Man is the story of Nick Trailer, sexually and physically abused in childhood, discovering his humanity and finding love as an adult. The pen has become his instrument for advocacy, connection, and ultimately, healing.
