Who is Melinda Snodgrass anyway?

After eight years as a novelist which included the publication of her CIRCUIT trilogy, and co-creating, editing, and writing for the Wild Card series, Melinda began her career as a story editor on STAR TREK:TNG, and wrote the Writer's Guild Award nominated script THE MEASURE OF A MAN. She worked for REASONABLE DOUBTS, and PROFILER, wrote six pilots, and had one produced and aired, STAR COMMAND. She is currently working on the third book in the EDGE series, has delivered the first book in a new urban fantasy series, and is starting on the second.  She has two screenplays currently under consideration in Hollywood.

“If H.P. Lovecraft and H. L. Mencken had ever collaborated, they might have come up with something like The Edge of Reason . This one will delight thinkers--and outrage true believers--of all stripes.” --George R. R. Martin

Story Announcement

Hi Guys,

I just wanted to let folks know that the Aug/Sept issue of Fantasy and Science Fiction is on the stands, and I have a story in the magazine.  

It's called A Token of a Better Age, and it's the "real" story behind St. George and the Dragon as told through the prism of my EDGE universe.

I've only had two stories appear in magazines.  This one in F&SF and one in Thrilling Wonder Stories.


Bearing Witness

Like many others I have spent hours reading Andrew Sullivan's blog at The Daily Dish, and Nicco Pitney at the Huffington Post.

I'm going to link to this video posted by Hamed Rad.  I'm going to warn you, it's disturbing.  You will see a young woman dying in her father's hands.  Her only crime?  She went out on the street in defiance of an unjust order from a theocratic leader of an oppresive regime.

Because of new technology this girl's death cannot be hidden, or swept away.  She cannot and will not be forgotten.

What am I feeling?  Rage.  And grief.  And a desperate sense that I want to _do something_, and there's very little that I can do.

But I can bear witness.
