When published, this article will become my third Bohemian article researching sci-fi writers who lived in Sonoma County. My two previous articles highlighted Philip K Dick and Frank Herbert, who wrote for Santa Rosa Press Democrat before gaining fame and acclaim for his Dune series. I had decided to release these two articles as free e-books before my first novel gets published, to show people interested in downloading my first novel that it isn't the first thing I have ever written.
I asked my Bohemian editor for explicit permission to reprint my articles, just to be on the safe side. Naturally, he said I could do so.
As soon as my Jack London article gets published in the weekly Bohemian, I will compile my three "sci-fi historian" articles into one convenient "free" e-book. Two of those short article could be considered "teasers" for two of my upcoming non-fiction books, about Frank Herbert's forgotten newspaper articles, and about Jack London's forgotten influence on science fiction, sword-and-sorcery, and dystopian literature.
So let it be written; so let it be done.
