What I present to you here is an Idea Mine. This Idea Mine, which consists of nearly one thousand creative works, has taken some twenty-five years to construct, create and compile. In this Idea Mine are dozens, even, scores of hidden gems that are ready for you to discover—and ready to assume their proper place in the world of ideas (today rather unceremoniously referred to as 'content'). Many of the works collected in this Idea Mine have been published in such places as The Paris Review, Creative Computing, and the Gnosis Anthology (English and Russian), while the collages have appeared in such varied outlets as New Letters, Boulevard, and Asimov’s Science Fiction. (For years I belonged to the Science Fiction Writers of America, but I do not classify myself as a science fiction writer.) During my career I’ve served as a senior executive for marketing and communications at several of the world’s leading high technology companies, including Legato Systems, Intelliguard Software, Intersolv, The Network Systems Corporation, Dun & Bradstreet, Unisys, and Apollo Computer, Inc. During this career, I have contributed to over $6 billion in growth. I’ve also had the dubious privilege of watching these very same enterprises shed billions in market value and employees by the tens of thousands. Timing is everything.
