About Douglas LeBlanc

Douglas LeBlanc writes speculative fiction about institutional power, systems behavior, and the quiet mechanics of decision-making.

His work explores what happens when systems outlive their original purpose, when optimization begins replacing judgment, and when the institutions designed to protect people begin making decisions on their behalf.

Drawing inspiration from real-world technology, national security, organizational behavior, and emerging artificial intelligence, his stories focus on ordinary people confronting extraordinary systems.

He lives in Texas where family remains the center of his life. A father of five and a grandfather of fifteen, he is currently working on future stories set within the Project Aegis universe.
