Office of Scientific Operations:
With the conclusion of the traumatic events in 1933 surrounding the shocking affair involving the city of New York and a beast commonly referred to as "King Kong" the president of the United States, Franklin Roosevelt, established the Office of Scientific Operations (OSO). The purpose of the OSO was to monitor, evaluate the level of risk and assist in any manner the mitigation of danger of any and all scientific operations and anomalies. With the rapid pace of scientific discovery this office was given the highest priority and clearance to investigate any potential threats or consequences to the interests of the United States of America.
K McConnell grew up in a small Michigan town sadly similar to the town of Hamlet in the Hamlet Mysteries. He graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a degree in English Literature with a minor in Writing that adequately prepared him for unemployment, a vocation he has fully embraced whenever possible. He has traveled extensively surviving numerous misadventures along the way. These days he spends a majority of his time writing for his own entertainment and anyone who wishes to listen in.
