My first professionally published story, "The Girls on USSF 193," appeared in the December. 1965, issue of
If Magazine, edited by Frederik Pohl. I'm not sure the exact date it went on sale, butit was probably sometime in November, since the printed date on the cover was usually the date the magazine went
off sale.
So this year marks my 50th anniversary as a professional writer. It's been a long, strange career, but one I'm mostly proud of.You can check out my books at
Parsina Press. And it's fitting that December is the debut date of
The Complete Parsina Saga, the boxed set of one of my favorite stories. If you're a fan of exotic adventure fantasies, I hope you'll check it out.
Now, on to the next 50 years!
