A native of rural central Illinois, Frederic S. Durbin was writing before he could read (though that period of his work is largely misunderstood). In school, he loved English, acting, singing, and band; in college, he devoured mythology and English literature and majored in classical languages. He spent twenty-two years in Japan teaching ESL and writing, mostly at Niigata University. Now returned to the U.S., he continues to spin tales of fantasy for children and adults. His novel 'A Green and Ancient Light' won the Realm Award and was named a Reading List Honor Book by the American Library Association and a Year's Best Fantasy by PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. Recently, he also crosses the desk and serves as a co-editor for the 'Cold Hard Type' fiction anthology series from Loose Dog Press. If he could create his ideal writing space, it would be a well-lighted desk in a vast cavern chamber or in the depths of a forest, beside a waterfall.
