About the author
Gary Myers is a native of South Gate, California, where he has lived his entire life. He is a self-proclaimed pessimist with “disappointingly ordinary dreams,” a remarkably modest self appraisal in view of his talent for creating boldly imaginative fiction. He can write only by sunlight and enjoys walking. Other interests include reading fantasy for pleasure and copying the fiction of Lord Dunsany.
It was the discovery of the fiction of H. P. Lovecraft that prompted Mr. Myers to compose the episodes that are collected in The House of the Worm. Since writing this hook he has earned his B.A. in art from the University of Redlands. Sonnets by Gary Myers have appeared in The Arkham Collector.
