Nico Rosso is a self-taught carpenter who developed his skills building bookshelves for his wife, romance author Zoë Archer (http://zoearcherbooks.com). Since then he’s populated their apartment with cabinets and other furniture. And he’ll take on handyman work for any friends with houses. When he isn’t devising what else he can make out of MDF and a pocket hole jig, he’s writing romance novels in subgenres ranging from sci-fi to post-apocalyptic to steampunk, where he gets to invent devices while letting someone else worry about how to build them.
