I was a math major, physics and astronomy minor at IU. I have very fond memories of the place for a number of reasons, the most important one being that I met my wife there. This was in the 1960s.

When I started writing seriously, the only respectable way to publish was via traditional publishing houses and magazines. I went that route. Nowadays, though, I'm self-publishing everything. After decades of dealing with agents and editors, I feel that I've done my time. There's no reason for you not to put your stories together into collections and publish them yourself as e-books. Print versions, too, if you want.
