I have finally completed the first draft of my new novel. The working title is “Dining With Mel” and tells the tale of an average meeting with an alien at his favorite dining spot in Melbourne, FL. It turns out she (the alien) is actually from the future and has a warning for the present time. Our hero decides to help her out, but what will it cost him and the future of humanity?
Oops! I have two different endings and will need to choose between the two. I’ll consult with my colleagues in the Palm Bay Writer’s Group, as they have been so helpful in developing the story. (I’m leaning toward the ending involving the evil twin.)

His short stories were published in several anthologies, and his novella, Dodging Butterflies—The Autobiography of Thomas Speaker, gained recognition for participation in the Writer’s Digest self-published book awards.
An active member of The Space Coast Writer’s Guild and Palm Bay Writer’s Group, Mr. Lofgren currently lives on Florida’s Space Coast, where he struggles to keep his garden thriving.
