Hiya.  My name is Eugene Fischer, but all of my friends and family know me as E. J.  If you want to, you can call me E. J. too.  Or Eugene, if you think that sounds nicer.  It’s entirely up to you.

I’m a writer living in San Antonio, Texas.  What seems like a very long time ago I graduated from the North East School of the Arts, where I was a creative writing major.  Somewhat more recently I graduated from Trinity University, where I was a physics major.  Most recently I graduated from the 2008 Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers’ Workshop, where I went back to creative writing, but no one thought it was weird if I put some physics in.  Clearly, this last one was the best of the three.

I’ll likely expand this page at some point in the future; gradually cultivate it into a lush garden of personal detail.  Until then, here are some links to other places online where I’ve planted seeds, all of which have been growing longer than this patch:

Facebook – This is my public search listing.  I’m quite active on Facebook, but I probably won’t friend you unless we actually know each other, or have at least met or communicated in some way.  (You can always send me an email if you want to get in touch.)

Twitter – I’m increasingly active on Twitter.  Sufficiently so that the poor RSS feed in the sidebar sometimes has trouble keeping up.  Oughtn’t you go check and make sure you haven’t missed something short and wonderful?

LibraryThing – I get a kick out of using this site to catalog my books and track my reading.  See what’s on my shelves!

LiveJournal – These days my LiveJournal account is just a mirror of the content on my blog, but the archives go back a bit farther, as it predates this website by several years.
