Here’s an interview with me about the story behind the story: how “The First Day of Someone Else’s Life” came to be written, and some of the themes and ideas behind it. “The First Day of Someone Else’s Life” is in the current, May-June issue of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction.

About John

I have been writing fiction for as long as I can remember. I was first published in college, but wrote only intermittently for the next several decades, during which I started and ran a small business, entered medical school, and practiced as an academic emergency physician for almost three decades. I took up writing fiction more seriously around 2002, and since then have published short fiction in Asimov’s, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Strange Horizons, Interzone, Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet, and other venues. One of my stories, “Fourteen Experiments in Postal Delivery,” has been reprinted in The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror, Twentieth Annual Collection. My first novel, Half-Witch, was published by Small Beer Press in July, 2018.
