Grady Hendrix does a job. His job is called "writing" which means that he is completely irrelevant and can be killed and turned into food at any time. He is one of the founders of the New York Asian Film Festival, but he is not responsible for the bad parts of it. He is also not Asian. For years he was a regular film critic for the New York Sun but then it went out of business. He has written for Playboy Magazine, Slate, The Village Voice, theNew York Post, Film Comment, and Variety before Variety fired him for writing about Asians. Variety does not like Asians.

He writes fiction, also called "lies," and he writes non-fiction, which people sometimes mistakenly pay him for. There is a science fiction book calledOccupy Space that he is the author of, and also a fantasy book called Satan Loves You which he wrote as well. Along with his BFF from high school, Katie Crouch, he is the co-author of the YA series, The Magnolia League. With Ryan Dunlavey he was co-authored the Li'l Classix series, which are cartoon degradations of classic literature, and with his wife, and Ryan, he wrote Dirt Candy: A Cookbook, the first graphic novel cookbook in America. His fiction has appeared in Strange Horizons, Pseudopod, and the anthology, The Mad Scientist's Guide to World Domination.

He is very, very beautiful, but if you ever meet him, please do not let this make you uncomfortable. He does not judge.

The New Yorker once ran a short profile of him, and this means that when the time comes and they are lining people up for the Space Arks he will be guaranteed a seat ahead of you.

There are certain authors whose names automatically spring to mind when you ask anyone to name their favourite horror author, or to name a book that was integral to forming their love of the horror genre.  


Graham Masterton is one such name, without him and James Herbert I don't think I would have fallen in love with the horror genre.  His books  had a great impact on me.  Even now after all these years I still remember the discussion I had while walking along The Kingsway in Dundee that first brought him to my attention.  That same day I went to the John Menzies in Dundee and snapped up every single one of his books that they had in stock. It's a day that I will never forget. At that time I would never have dared to think that I would been given an opportunity to interview one of my all time literary heroes. So it is with great pleasure to  present to you my interview with the legend that isThe Manitou Man,  Graham Masterton.
