Introduction

I started writing sceenplays for my short personal films back in the 80s but realized prose was much easier on the pocketbook and just as much fun. I'm a freelance photographer, photo instructor, inventor, and in 2010 I can honestly say - novelist.

What sort of stories do you write? And if you have anything published, tell us about it (even if it's not SF.) We love to hear about all your successes.

I've written several short stories but I like writing novels more. Two shorts have been picked up by TOTU. Another will appear in the MNSpec Anthology, Northern Lights. My novel, Z is for Xenophobe, will come out in 2010 - Sam's Dot Publishing.

What brings you to the SF Writers Meetup? Is there anything that you hope the group will do for you?

When I asked Eric H. if I could read at Dreamhaven, he set me up, no blood test, no background check. I was amazed. It doesn't happen like that at another place I could mention.

What Terry Faust is saying about this Meetup Group

Why should others join this group? You might as well ask why others should have creative thoughts, express themselves by painting, sculpting, dancing, and singing. Why should they join? Why should they breath, eat, and scratch their dog's ear? Why should they get up, take a shower, have a cup of coffee, and endure freeway traffic? Why should they polish their shoes, wash their dishes, and pass gas? It is elemental. It needs no answer because for each and everyone one of us the answer lays on the razor sharp edge between the past and the future, the here and the now, the left and the right, the up and the down. Why should others join this Meetup Group. You might as well ask, "Why not?"
