I've always been hooked on writing, especially science fiction. In the late '60s I joined the Army (there was a draft on, remember?) and fixed radars at an air defense missile site out on Sandy Hook, N.J. Later I majored in English at CSUN, paid for by the G.I Bill. (Thanks, Feds.) Since then I've published more than twenty stories in various SF magazines (Asimov's, F&SF, and others), plus four shared-world novels.
