Summary
I've lived my life in science fiction, fantasy, horror, and comic books, attending my first convention in 1970, hired by Marvel Comics in 1974, publishing my first short story in 1981, editing my first magazine in 1983, launching my first podcast in 2016, and more. Along the way, I've been witness to the history of multiple genres, which has caused many of my friends, followers, and fans to suggest I write my autobiography. But since I don't plan to take time away from everything else going on in my life to do so, I've decided to periodically share nostalgic stories from my many creative journeys here. Join me!
