About the Author

 

Ian M. Dudley was born in California in 19--, in what will undoubtedly go down in the history books as a dark year indeed for literature.  At age 18, he ran away to New York City to find fame and glamor in the New York literary world.  He didn’t.

 

In 1993, Ian was forcibly committed to the New York Municipal Hospital for the Criminally Insane.  It was there that he created the Marlowe and the Spacewoman series, of which
Marlowe and the Spacewoman
is the first.  He has always claimed these mad ravings are non-fiction, dictated to him by a fellow patient claiming to be the protagonist Marlowe, thrown back in time as the result of a diabolical plot.  Hospital orderlies regularly tried to disabuse Ian of this notion, but the beatings were either too infrequent, or not severe enough.

 

Ian has written numerous unpublished works of fiction and non-fiction, the titles of which are too terrible to duplicate here, except for
The Killer Party: How to Host A Murder Mystery
.  The promotional activities for that book are what led to his incarceration. 

 

In 1996, Ian escaped from the New York Municipal Hospital for the Criminally Insane.  He is believed to have migrated to the West Coast, where the extradition laws are more lenient.  His exact location is unknown, and no current photos of him are available.  The above photo was taking while posing with a fellow patient at the hospital.

 

Ian has never won, and never will win, any literary awards for his efforts, but he is believed to be responsible for the theft of five Hugos, three Nebulas, and the 1998 Nobel Prize for Literature (José is
still
pissed
about it).  He is considered armed and extremely dangerous.  If you see Ian, do not approach him, but contact local law enforcement.
 

 

His blog, ianmdudley.com, is shockingly nondescript given the deviant nature of his abnormal brain.
