John Klima’s Summary

In my life I am creating two career tracks at the same time. I am working in library science, bringing my experience in publishing and computer programming into a field that has a desperate need to be brought up-to-date with today's technologies and today's people. My aim is to some day become a director of a library.

At the same time, I am building my publishing enterprise. I publish a critically acclaimed science fiction zine called Electric Velocipede. In 2007 I edited an anthology of short stories based on spelling-bee winning words called Logorrhea: Good Words Make Good Stories, which was published by Bantam. I am looking towards eventually publishing books.
