User:Bg editor

I'm Howard Andrew Jones, and am the Managing Editor of Black Gate magazine and (accidentally) the authority on historical fiction author Harold Lamb; I maintain his web site and have tracked down and edited his rare texts and supervised the publication of multiple volumes of his work. In 2007 I completed a master's degree with a thesis exploring the subtext in Harold Lamb's Cossack stories.

I have written extensively about both Harold Lamb and the sword-and-sorcery genre, in multiple venues, and my fantasy fiction has appeared in a variety of magazines and anthologies.

When not involved in any of the above, I teach writing at a small university, and edit technical books.
