Writer, proofreader, editor, publisher, illustrator, designer, storyteller, publicist, marketer. Those are the skills I bring to my writing. If you don't have all those skills, you can't be an interdimensional author like myself; how many writers do you know who've had book-signings at Maskull's Books & Tapes on Arcturus. On Vega IV, SlimeWars has gone viral, but then, they've never been to Urth.

Photo left to right: EJ Gold, Virginia Heinlein, Robert A. Heinlein. The Golds and Heinleins were close family friends for well over half a century, although Horace Gold, founding editor of Galaxy SF, seldom bought Heinlein's stories. He was more of a novel writer than a short story writer, and Galaxy was about the art of the short story.
