I am a technical writer and former librarian and I've just finished studying part-time for a Masters in editing and publishing.

    I really enjoyed his books -- partially for the exotic location and culture. I was never able to guess what was going to happen next (which is good). How accurate his portrayal of Thai culture is is something I can't verify--I've no experience with it.

    Bibliotechno,
    I'm glad that you're so interested in DMI! I hope you enjoy working here and having fun with committees and parties and more. However, you shouldn't create discussions unless you are a member of the Party Planning Committee, the DMI Newsletter, or Corporate. Sorry about that!

    That was quite a compliment, thank you. I do stand out terribly in Utah, for so many reasons. I am only here a short time though, in Portland Oregon I don't seem so bizarre. In fact, I'm very average in Portland. Do you enjoy Sartre?

    Hi Blibliotechno!

    I'll get around to putting a proper bio up on Shelfari, and you can skim my publishing from there. [Right now I'm too flat out to do it!]

    For now -- the best places to find out about horror publishing in Australia are the AHWA website www.australianhorror.com - and www.ozhorrorscope.blogspot.com

    Hope that's helpful!

    I've gotten a lot of intellectual satisfaction out of Animal Farm and PoTEL. Aside from Farm, I prefer his non-fiction.
