LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF...

As a professional author, I am, as the song goes, a man of independent means (actually, in the Rolling Stones' song, it was "wealth and taste" I think). However, in my newly released Sci-Fu work, THE EDGE OF MADNESS (Aignos 2020) by Raymond Gaynor, the three young protagonists are definitely not "of independent means." Taking up where TOTAL MELTDOWN (Borgo/Wildside 2009) by Raymond Gaynor and William Maltese left off, NewAmerica, a shadow of its former United States of America, provides a challenging and dangerous future place for three young firebrands to live.

Raymond Gaynor is the pen-name of the multi-award-winning, reclusive writer-artist-photographer-videographer, who, in his own words, "lives and breathes" San Francisco. He co-authored with William Maltese on the Tripler and Clarke gay political thriller, TOTAL MELTDOWN (Borgo/Wildside 2009) and with A. G. Hayes on the fifth Koski & Falk adventure, QUANTUM DEATH (Savant 2016). He is the author of numerous fiction and non-fiction works published under a variety of different pseudonyms. THE EDGE OF MADNESS (Aignos 2020) is his first singly authored work. And, yes, "professional author" is a bit of an oxymoron in that "author" has always historically implied "professional," though this distinction is rapidly blurring in today's world of increasingly diverse "publishing" schemes and "giveaway writing/writers" erroneously called authoring/authors. My opinion. Hope this ruffles enough feathers to stir a few comments...
