I’m an editor and writer, with various eclectic interests. Below are summaries of some aspects of my life; for details, follow the links.
Present: Who I am
I’m a writer and editor of software documentation and fiction. I live in a house full of books in Mountain View, California.
My interests include discussing language, playing with words, reading fiction, watching movies, playing games, singing rounds, publishing ebooks, collecting nifty and fun toys and devices of various sorts, and engaging in airy persiflage.
Past: A Brief History of Jed
I grew up in California, attended Swarthmore College and Clarion West elsewhere, and then came back to California.
Worked at Apple (QA), SGI (tech writing), Macromedia (tech writing), and Google (tech writing and editing).
I also spent twelve years as a fiction editor for the online speculative fiction magazine Strange Horizons.
